Who We Are
We are a family-friendly Eucharistic community of Christians who center our worship of God through prayer, song and the celebration of Christ's gift of the Holy Eucharist. Families are encouraged to bring children to the main worship service. Jesus said, "Let the little children come to me." The presence (and sound) of children in the worship service is a source of great joy to us, as to the Lord.
All Saints's is a member of the Episcopal Diocese of Texas. www.epicenter.org
Our Philosophy
Faith is more than what happens on Sunday mornings. It's a part of who we are, inside and out. At All Saints' Episcopal Church, we believe in sharing the joy of the gospels daily, and living a life that embodies the spirit of Christ.

Alcoholics Anonymous is an international fellowship of men and women who have had a drinking problem. It is nonprofessional, self-supporting, multiracial, apolitical, and available almost everywhere. There are no age or education requirements. Membership is open to anyone who wants to do something about his or her drinking problem.
A basic text about Alcoholics Anonymous is commonly called, "The Big Book." This book was written by the founders of AA and it explains the AA method, gives the "12 Steps" and "12 Traditions" of AA.

Books for summer reading for pre-school children
Thanks to a generous contribution from a former member, All Saints' provides book bags with 5 children's books for summer reading to each of the children in the Crockett ISD Early Childhood program. Members of the congregation unpack the books and place them in book bags and Fr. Jack, along with the donor and several members bring the book bags and books to the Early Childhood Program, read samples of the books to the children, then distribute the book bags with books to each child to keep.
This year, the Bishop's Committee funded an expansion to include pre-school and pre-K at the Jordan School.
