Hospitality
The group in charge of hospitality at All Saints' is Heavenly Hosts. This is a lay hospitality ministry that was established in the fall of 2008. Its main purpose is to involve parishioners in the preparation and staffing of All Saints' receptions, both celebratory and funeral. Its secondary purpose is to provide parishioner assistance to the sexton/facilities manager who is necessarily involved in these events through scheduling, purchasing supplies, setup, and maintenance. Its overarching mission is to be a welcoming and gracious presence to all who enter our doors for such events. Heavenly Hosts comprises approximately 40 volunteers who help with setup, food preparation, serving, and cleanup. The current co-chairs are Ruth Ann Lostracco, and Bettie Pollan for celebratory receptions, and Patti Woolery-Price for funeral receptions.
In the past, celebratory events planned and executed by Heavenly Hosts included: an Ordination reception; a wedding reception; the dinner for Les Petits Chanteurs (Haitian boys choir and orchestra); the annual Lemonade in the Shade Labor Day event; and several large funeral receptions. This group basically organizes any reception requested by the Rector.
