Ministries and activities at All Saints’ Church are all part of our mission to know and serve the Risen Christ in all we do. All Saints’ and its parishioners presently help sustain fourteen separate ministries, either through direct personal involvement or through financial support. Some of these are internal, some local and others international in scope. Most of our ongoing ministries in the community are in support of established charities. The list on this page is a partial summary of our ministries and activities.

All Saints’ Concerns Committee

All Saints’ Concerns Committee provides vital services to members of the parish in temporary need of assistance. These may involve preparing and delivering meals to parishioners recovering from an illness or providing transportation for the elderly or infirm.

HomeFront

HomeFront’s mission is to provide food, clothing, shelter and employment counseling for needy families in the county. All Saints’ parishioners prepare and deliver meals once a month to homeless families (about 100 persons) housed in motels in Mercer and Burlington Counties through the auspices of HomeFront. We also maintain a clothes closet that delivers serviceable clothing to those in need throughout the year and a hold a drive to collect Christmas presents for inner city children.

Crisis Ministry of Princeton and Trenton

Crisis Ministry of Princeton and Trenton prevents hunger and homelessness by providing food, financial assistance and advocacy for low-income people in Mercer County. The parish has supported this important ministry for many years with food donations and contributes personal time to a number of the organization’s initiatives.

Womanspace

Womanspace aids families impacted by domestic and sexual abuse in Mercer County. Its programs include crisis intervention, emergency shelter, counseling, court advocacy and housing services. All Saints’ volunteers work as counselors to those seeking to recover from abusive family situations and the parish regularly collects personal items for victims who are forced to leave their homes on short notice.

Trenton Area Soup Kitchen

Trenton Area Soup Kitchen provides food throughout the year to needy inner city residents. All Saints’ supports the work of this organization in various ways, particularly with a commitment to donate the cost of meals and to prepare and serve lunch at the Soup Kitchen each year on All Saints’ Day.

Border to Border Missions

Border to Border Missions builds housing for the homeless in Juarez, Mexico. For the past two years members of All Saints’ Youth Group and adult parishioners have raised funds for construction materials and have traveled to Juarez to build a three-room house in the space of two days.

Seamen’s Church Institute

We are a “Seafarer Friendly Church” with a special relationship with the Seamen’s Church Institute.
