Something New!!

Library Birthday Program

Here at All Saints’ we are excited to launch a brand new program designed to build up your child’s school library while honoring your child’s birthday!

Here’s how it would work:  One month prior to your child’s birthday, you would make a $15 contribution to our library in your child’s honor.  Our librarian, Annemarie Spain, would purchase a book based on what is currently needed in the library.  This book would have a plaque inside with your child’s name and it would be presented to him the week of your child’s birthday at Chapel.  Your child would then have the opportunity to be the first to check this book out.

Please help support your school library and encourage the love of reading in your child!  If you have any questions, please contact Annemarie Spain.  Thank you! 

Thanks to Dr. Selby and Heidi Sexton for committing to a book donation on behalf of their child!!

Change of phone number for Adam and Gretchen Weigel (Isaac too) 423-200-6876
