What’s happening at All Saints on a regular basis? Have a look below at some of the activities you will find going on during the week. There are plenty of opportunities to join in, get to know each other and grow in our understanding and experience of God.
PRAYER
ASCENT PRAYER
No church community can remain active and alive without its members meeting together for prayer. On the fourth Thursday at 7.30pm the All Saints’ faithful meet in the Lounge to pray together for our church, for our mission and for our town. Do join with us.
EMERGENCY PRAYER CHAIN
Confidential prayer support in an emergency can be ignited & spread by contacting the co-ordinator of the emergency prayer chain. Details including the number to ring are found on the back page of Grapevine.
BIBLE STUDY
HOME GROUPS
There are many groups that meet for fellowship, for prayer and for Bible Study, either weekly or fortnightly, normally in private homes around the town. If you are interested in joining one of these groups, please speak to the Church Manager.
COME ASIDE
This is a Bible Study group, meeting in the Church Centre lounge on 1st and 3rd Wednesdays of each month at 2pm for those who would like to spend an hour learning more of what the Bible teaches us.

MEN
J21:12, MEN’S BREAKFAST
The ‘best breakfast in town’ can be had on the first Saturday in the month at 8am in the Centre. All men are welcome to this friendly group to hear a good selection of guest speakers.
RETIRED
CAMEO
Getting out and meeting friends of the same age and experience is important and CAMEO enables many in our church and beyond to do this. This is solely for the older retired members of our Church and Parish so that they can get together and help plan a varied programme to suit their interests.
PRIMETIME
CREATIVE ARTS
MUSIC
Music is a wonderful gift from God. It helps us to celebrate life, to bring comfort and solace and to inspire our worship. We love to use our fine organ, choir, contemporary bands and soloists in our services. We also delight in hosting many musical ensembles and choirs from Eastbourne and beyond.
ALL SAINTS PLAYERS
Every so often a strange group of people emerge from the shadows and into the spotlight to ply their thespian craft as they tread the well-worn boards with adept skill. “Oh no they don’t” I hear you cry! Well if that is a bit of a grand overstatement they certainly entertain to the delight of all. Much fun is had in pantomime, murder mystery evenings and the like and there’s always an opportunity to get involved.
FLOWER ARRANGING
God’s creation is stunning and we love to celebrate his work and gift to us in our church. Flower displays is the most consistent way in which we do this at All Saints. We have a very gifted team who ensure we have beautiful and appropriate flower displays for every season of the year. They would always welcome anyone who would like to share their talent in this area.
BELL RINGERS
There is a peel of bells that welcomes local people to our service on Sunday morning. The team practise on a Monday evening and would welcome anyone wanting to take up this activity.
