Join All Angels Episcopal Day School for our pre-k graduation. The celebration will include an art show with pottery made by all of our students. Our kids will demonstrate the American Sign Language they have been learning all year, and we will celebrate the progress of our school, which now has a wait-list for all three classrooms. We would love to have a good representation from the parish at graduation. Don’t miss it!

Spring is in the air and Fourth Friday Compline and Communion at 8 is back! Join us in a north valley garden home. The garden opens at 7:45, Compline and Communion is at 8. For more information and directions, reach out to our parish office.

We’ve received just over $40,000 of the $104,000 we need for the project. Thanks to those who have already contributed. We are hoping to start work very soon, so that we can take advantage of federal incentives (before they can be eliminated by the new administration).

Each solar panel will cost roughly $900 when installed (after we receive the federal and state tax credits). Will you sponsor a panel for $900? Two for $1800? Or half a panel for $450?

You can donate on our website or donate by check in the offering plate (write "solar" in the memo). Questions? Contact Cheri Bertram in our office.

On Saturday morning June 7, we will march in the Pride Parade with Episcopalians from across Albuquerque. 

On Sunday June 8 Bishop Hunn will be with us for Pentecost, and we will welcome new Episcopalians through Confirmation, Reception, and Reaffirmation. You won’t want to miss this celebration!
