Angel Tree:  Julie heard from many of you that you miss the physical tags.  So, this year the children’s wish tags will be available after the 8:00 and 10:00 services on Dec 3rd. Remaining tags will be listed electronically and will be published in next week’s Snapshot.  Please return the gifts to the church office, wrapped with the tag taped to the present, by Dec 15th.  The gifts will be given to the families on Dec 17th.  Thank you to everyone who so generously participates in this program!

Bishop’s House:  Are you a musician—or do you know one—who is willing to share your talents with the community at The Bishops’ House this holiday season? We are looking for volunteer musicians, both groups and individuals, ready to donate their time and spread some festive cheer at our Victorian Holiday Open Parlors!

The Longest Night – A Service for the Weary: December 21 is the longest night of the year in the northern hemisphere, the winter solstice. Sometimes the festivity surrounding the Advent and Christmas seasons does not match the weariness in our hearts – challenges in our own lives, pain and heartbreak in the world around us. All Saints Episcopal Church is joining with Redeemer Lutheran Church for a contemplative service to let our weary hearts, bodies, and spirits rest on Thursday, December 21st, at 7 pm at Redeemer Lutheran Church (2920 Cassia St, Boise). Simple music, prayers, and readings will give us a place to let us care for ourselves and one another.

Ladies Who Lunch:  We are not meeting this month, but be sure to catch the deets in December! 

2024 Altar Flowers:  The sign-up is now open for sponsoring the Altar Flowers for next year. If you have a special date – now is the time to sign up!  Don’t delay to get your favorite date and remember to have your dedication ready: https://allsaintsboise.org/worship-and-community/sign-ups/.
