All Hallows Parish South River

About Us

An Episcopal Church part of the Anglican Communion

Dearly Beloved,

God’s peace in the name of the Jesus Christ! It is indeed my joy to extend our welcome and hospitality to you as you explore our All Hallows’ Parish website. As you work your way through the pages of our website, you will discover that All Hallows’ is a church where all people are welcomed in Christ’s name. Our goal as a parish is to embody God’s love for the world through our worship, fellowship, education, mission and outreach. Jesus says, “I have come that they may have life, and have it abundantly.” (John 10:10b) We seek this abundant life of grace and truth in our common life and ministry. Our parishioners respond to God’s call seriously by giving their time, talents, and treasures for the sake of the Kingdom of God. Some of us devote our time in assisting in worship or sharing our musical gifts. Many parishioners attend the Rector's Forums, retreats, and special spiritual development programs offered regularly. Some of us share our skills and expertise in nurturing and guiding the children and youth, who are both the future and the present of our church. Others meet God in serving at the Monday Foodbank, supporting the Lighthouse Shelter in Annapolis and volunteering at various other mission and outreach projects. And many others serve to ensure our parishioners have fellowship opportunities in the Men’s Breakfast, Ladies’ High Tea, and All Hallows’ Happy Hour. So come and worship with us. Taste and see that the Lord is good. I look forward to greeting you in person. May God's abundant blessings be with you!
