All Saints' Episcopal Church

Homecoming is a great time for friends and former members of All Saints who have moved away to come back to All Saints for worship, good food, and friends.  

This year, the Right Rev'd Jennifer Brooks-Davidson will preach and preside.  Bishop Jennifer is the bishop assisting of the Diocese of North Carolina.  Confirmands will be presented for Confirmation.

Bring a dish to shared at the covered dish lunch that follows in the parish house.  If you are unable to bring food, bring yourself.  We have yet to have run out of food!

All are welcome, so do share this announcement widely with folks you'd like to see on November 1!

The Burial Rites for Jennifer Lynn Quinn will be at All Saints on Saturday, November 7, at 11:00 AM.

A reception follows in the parish house.  Please share this information with all who knew her.

Pray for the repose of her soul and for her husband Richard and all who mourn her.

Rest eternal grant her, O Lord.  And let light perpetual shine upon her.

The Parish Office sustained damage during the storms passing through Roanoke Rapids on Friday, May 16, 2025, around 6:30 PM.

The large oak tree has been removed from the roof, but the repairs and damage assessment continue.

The Parish Office is temporarily located at 9 East 7th Street in the Parish House.

The repairs are extensive.  The roof, trusses, chimney, plumbing exhaust, electrical connections, ceilings, and more must be repaired and inspected.  

Kenneth Daniel Roofing is working with All Saints and Church Insurance Group to make repairs.

We can answer the phone in the parish house, but if we call out from the phone it shows an unknown number.  Without more fees, we cannot overcome this issue.  We can receive calls on our number.

We can check USPS mail and email.  Please be patient as we handle this disruption.

Services on Sundays at 11:15 and on Wednesdays at 12:00 continue without issue.  All are welcome!

We are awaiting arrival of necessary building materials to begin repair work.  Obtaining the necessary supplies has been challenging.

This update is current as of OCTOBER 2026.  Contact Mike Scott at mike.scott.pro@gmail.com  with questions regarding the parish office repairs.

The parish house chairs were purchased in 1947 to furnish the new building.  They were made in Siler City, NC, by the High Point Bending and Chair Company using North Carolina craftsmen and lumber.

The Stewardship Committee is pleased to announce the restoration project to give the nearly 80 year old chairs another 80 years of service.  

The cost of restoration covers the chair and also serves as a fundraiser to accrue funds for a number of maintenance projects coming up on the historic Upjohn church building.

The chair joints will be disassembled, reglued, and clamped to dry.  They will be refinished once joints are secured and any necessary repairs made.  

You may restore a chair in memory of someone, in honor of someone, or with thanksgiving for someone or a life event or milestone.  These will be recorded in an archival quality book to remain in the parish house.

The project will be ongoing until the chairs are completed.  Fortunately, the restorer in Momeyer, NC, will take 25 chairs at the time, allowing us to only send chairs to the workshop once we have received the donations for the restoration.  

Consider adopting one more chairs over the next few months or years!  Thank you.

August update:  Twenty -five (25) chairs have been beautifully and expertly restored and returned.

There are 125 chairs to go.  Consider restoring a few chairs to celebrate the people of All Saints, Roanoke Rapids, past and present, and yet to come!
