All Saints’ is active in our community
Caring for the Homeless
“Contribute to the needs of the saints; extend hospitality to strangers.” Romans 12:13
All Saints’ Episcopal Church is dedicated to helping those experiencing homelessness receive the necessities of life, including food, shelter, clothing and resource support. Partnering with homelessness programs on the state and local level, we are committed to sharing love and compassion to those in need.
Charitable Support through Giving
“For if the eagerness is there, the gift is acceptable according to what one has—not according to what one does not have.” 2 Corinthians 8:12
At All Saints’ Episcopal Church, we believe in sharing the gifts God has blessed us with to benefit the community in which we live and work. We do this through fundraisers, local events and the generosity of our congregation.

Father Jim’s Reflections, May 2025
Easter season is upon us. It’s a period of 50 days beginning with our recent Easter Sunday and concluding with Pentecost, this year on June 8th. On May 4th, the Third Sunday of Easter, we will have a visit from the Rev. Cristi Chapman, our Canon to the Ordinary. She will celebrate and preach at our 9:30 service. Her appearance reflects a new policy that Bishop LaBelle has instituted. He intends to visit parishes in the diocese every three years, about as much as he can given the size of the Diocese of Olympia. Every year, however, each parish will get a visit from a diocesan official, and this is our time with Rev. Chapman. I’m looking forward to it. She was very helpful at the passing of Deacon Jeffrey, and she wants to maintain a relationship with us.

Bede the Venerable, 735
At the age of seven, Bede’s parents brought him to the nearby monastery at Jarrow (near Durham in northeast England) for his education. There, as he later wrote, “spending all the remaining time of my life…I wholly applied myself to the study of Scripture, and amidst the observance of regular discipline, and the daily care of singing in the church, I always took delight in learning, teaching, and writing.”
Grant, O God,
that your holy and life-giving Spirit may so move every human heart, that barriers which divide us may crumble, suspicions disappear, and hatreds cease; that our divisions being healed, we may live in justice and peace; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
Our Faith is Biblically Based, Focused on Jesus, and Leading to the Reconciliation of All Peoples.
Who are we at All Saints’ Tacoma and what do we believe? We are followers of Jesus Christ in the Episcopal tradition. It is our goal and purpose to create a beloved community of those who share our values.
We are committed to Christian Principles, focusing on the basic equality and inclusion of all peoples.
Our lives as followers of Jesus are based on the historic creeds and the two great sacraments of Holy Baptism and Holy Eucharist. We strive accordingly to be a place of refuge and sanctuary for all people. In our often divisive world, our congregation is based on love, compassion and hospitality. We believe the first step in making the world better is creating a church where people can be valued for who they are and who live our lives in imitation of Christ.
