All Saints is located on a busy corner on Hoboken's main street. Just outside our doors is a bus stop on a major route into New York’s Port Authority. While many of those who pass by or wait there may never come inside, we try to find ways for them to connect with us and to know that we pray for them and for our little city.
Since starting this time of “loving distance,” we have put everything online, worshipping on Sunday via Facebook Live and following that with coffee hour on Zoom. Compline and Evening Prayer are also on Zoom, as is a Friday morning “Percolate with the Pastor,” a time to sit and chat over coffee.
The challenge for us is how to let the community know that we are still here, even though our big red doors are closed? In addition to activity on social media and word-of-mouth, we’ve just put up a new sign where we usually have some quote by the Presiding Bishop. This one is more about us, though.
Yes, our doors may be closed, but our hearts are still very much open.
