More photos added!

The transition from our church home began on Sunday, April 28, and we have become welcomed guests in the home of another. It will be good to keep up on the metamorphosis that will be happening in and around the All Saints’ while we’re at St. Luke’s.

As things change over the next few months, we will take a photo journey. Photos will be added on a weekly to bi-weekly basis with additional photos added as the changes occur, so stay tuned!
