At All Saints, we believe that it's our responsibility to impact the world around us. Whether it's someone in our parish, the local community, or the world, our mission is to help the hurting, the discouraged, and the destitute in the name of Jesus. We are an outreach church, operating ministries of our own as well as working in partnership with local groups and agencies that are committed to alleviating poverty, illiteracy, and homelessness.

Why should a small local church spend so much of our resources on helping others? It's because the love of God shows itself most clearly when God's people reach beyond themselves and care about those around them. Whether it's the other side of the street or the other side of the world, we have the opportunity to impact others in the same way God is impacting us. 
All Saints' has been designated a Jubilee Ministry Center of the Episcopal Church in recognition of our work in empowering the poor and oppressed in our community.

_Maybe you're thinking, "What about me?" There are plenty of people here who reach out to care for parishioners who are ill, homebound, in hospital, or who have been recently bereaved. The clergy are available for emergency calls - just contact the parish office at (248) 334-4571 and connect with the Rector's voicemail for emergency contact information. Our Lay Visiting Ministry keeps in contact with our homebound members and those in assisted living or nursing facilities through telephone calls, visits, and sending cards and notes. Our Eucharistic Visitors assist the clergy by bringing Holy Communion to those who are unable to attend worship.

Pre-marital counseling, funeral planning, confidential discussions about life transitions, and the Sacrament of Reconciliation (confession) are available on an as-needed basis. Just contact our parish office for an appointment.

We are committed to making a difference in the city of Pontiac. In addition to various personal outreach programs that are run directly by the parish, many of our members are committed to working in partnership with a variety of social service programs and agencies such as:

The Baldwin Center
Soup kitchen work, donating produce from our market

Crossroads of Michigan
Making and serving lunch for over 800 indigent and homeless guests

HOPE Warming Center
Serving dinner and doing general volunteer work at a seasonal homeless shelter
