The Coming of Christ

Christmas holds a special place in the hearts of Anglicans and Christians worldwide. It all starts with the beginning of the Church year, Advent.

Advent, a season of reflection and anticipation. It lasts for four Sundays before Christmas Day. During Advent, the Church prepares to celebrate the coming of Christ. The decorations are simple and sparse, often adorned with the traditional color of purple. As darkness envelops the world, the symbols of light and darkness resonate powerfully. The Advent wreath, with its four purple candles, marks the weeks leading up to Christmas. The central white candle represents Christ, the Light of the world. Here’s a prayer from this season:

“Lord Jesus, Light of light, you have come among us. Help us who live by your light to shine as lights in your world. Glory to God in the highest. Amen.”

Christmas. On December 25 we celebrate the mystery of God dwelling among humanity. Jesus, the Son of Mary, fulfils the promises of the Old Testament prophets. Christmas is a time of great celebration, uniting believers and marking the birth of our Savior.

May this Christmas season fill your heart with hope, joy, and the light of Christ! 🌟🎄

We are All Saints

We are all about the simplicity of the experience of journeying with God. Our home lies in secluded beauty in the heart of Fourways. We offer two services on a Sunday and a further service on a Wednesday. Our ministering team comprises a group of dynamic individuals who are passionate about their relationship with God and sharing the message with others who are looking to continue or start their spiritual and religious relationship with Him.

What We Do

We inspire your journey with God wherever and whenever we can.

“We are to come before our God, bow down and worship Him. We are to sing for joy and shout aloud His salvation. We are to extol Him with music, song and life.” Psalm 95:1-7 ​
