Elders

All Souls has a variety of activities for older members.

A group of 15-25 meets each Thursday for a variety of programs and worship. A Bible study group meets at 11:00 a.m.; the Holy Eucharist is celebrated with the laying on of hands and anointing for healing at noon; and lunch follows at 12:45. People are free to choose one, two or all three of these options.

Sick or housebound elders are visited by Eucharistic Ministers who bring the sacrament directly from the Sunday service. Nursing home residents are visited, and one local nursing home has a visiting team for music, worship and communion. Another local nursing home has an interdenominational service each Sunday led by a member of the All Souls clergy team.
