Community Outreach
All Saints has a rich tradition of working to love and serve the Lord through all that we say and do, right here in our own community.  Each year, All Saints raises over $10,000 for outreach, funds that go directly to serve the needs of our community.
The Garden of Eatin
The Garden of Eatin’ is All Saints’ community garden. The garden’s mission statement is: Growing Food… Growing Awareness… Growing Community
The Garden of Eatin’ was begun as a response to the food insecurity in Guilford County and in our immediate community. A true community garden, the Garden of Eatin’ brings together people from the All Saints community and the broader community through donations of time, tools, knowledge and resources.
100% of the produce harvested from the Garden of Eatin’ is donated to local food pantries in
our community, beginning with our neighbor, Celia Phelps United Methodist Church.
If you are interested in the Garden of Eatin’, contact Stephen McCollum.

Rummage Sale
The last Saturday in September marks the annual All Saints Rummage Sale. Rummage and collectibles accumulate in the church basement all year and on the last Saturday in September, the grassy lawn and the parish hall are turned into a massive marketplace. The All Saints Rummage Sale is the place to find what you need – from books to shoes, from golf clubs to polished silver, and from dishes to crystal vases. The All Saints community comes together to raise over $2,000 annually, with all of the money raised going directly to outreach projects and directly back into the community.
Dining For Friends
Each year from 2000-2019, All Saints hosted Dining with Saintly Friends, a Dining for Friends party to benefit Triad Health Project. Triad Health Project provides emotional and practical support to individuals living with HIV/AIDS, to their loved ones, and to those at risk for HIV/AIDS.
Dining with Saintly Friends was a celebration of community for community. Family, friends, and neighbors gather under our trees (weather permitting) and in our parish hall for homemade BBQ, sides, church lady desserts and a fabulous Raffle-Rama of donated items and services. In exchange for a delicious dinner, folks were asked to make a tax-deductible gift to THP. Over those five years, Dining with Saintly Friends raised over $50,000 to support THP’s vital work.

Art-A-Fair
In 2011, Greensboro Urban Ministry was facing financial difficulties with their Winter Emergency Shelters. When All Saints looked inward and was reminded of all the talented artists that the parish housed, The Art-a-Fair was born. Homelessness is an isolating experience for individuals, but is a problem felt throughout the entire community. This problem is particularly acute during the winter months when weather conditions become life-threatening. The WE! (Winter Emergency) Program provides homeless men and women with immediate relief from the elements through temporary shelter at area winter emergency shelter sites from December 1 through March 31.
After searching the community, All Saints invites talented, local artists to showcase and sell their art at the Art-a-Fair. For four hours, All Saints parishioners, neighbors and community members flood the parish hall to hear live music, enjoy cheese and wine, explore the artistic talents of the community and do a little shopping. Artists are asked to consider donating 20% of their Art-a-Fair profits to All Saints, which in turn directs the money to Greensboro Urban Ministry’s Winter Emergency Program.Â
All Saints’ Art-a-Fair is always the first Saturday in December – we hope to see you there! If you are intersted in participating, please contact:
Lunch at Higher Ground
The third Wednesday of each month is All Saints’ day to share lunch with the clients at Higher Ground. On this day, All Saints parishioners bring lunch and other goodies to Higher Ground and enjoy a meal with the clients.
Established as a conduit for area faith communities to get involved in Guilford County's HIV/AIDS crisis, Higher Ground's programs nurture inclusive, nondenominational roots while remaining flexibly abreast of the changing "face" of HIV/AIDS. Higher Ground proposes to be a community network wherein THP clients may connect with peers, volunteers, community resources, counselors, and health professionals in a nurturing, communal setting. Ultimately, for its participants, Higher Ground is a safe place ... a place to explore oneself and the world in the light of the very intense journeys HIV/AIDS presses upon all of us.
If you are interested in joining All Saints at Higher Ground, contact the church office.
