At All Saints, we believe in putting our faith into action, seeking and serving Christ in all persons in Hoboken and beyond. Through word and deed, creative service, regular worship, challenging education programs for discipleship, care and concern for the people of our community, this congregation seeks the welfare of the city and its people. We are members of the Episcopal Diocese of Newark and
the worldwide Anglican Communion. However, you do not have to be Episcopalian to join this congregation. We do not insist that people become like us in order to be acceptable but invite people of all sorts to participate in our spiritual life and our social life--- including but not limited to:
Believers and agnostics,
Conventional Christians and questioning skeptics,
Children, women, men, and non-binary people,
Those who are straight, gay, le***an, bisexual, and transgender,
Those who hope for a better world and those who have lost hope,
Those of all races and cultures, of all classes and abilities. Our congregation thinks that the way we behave toward one another and toward other people is as important as the way we talk about our beliefs. We value questioning more than answering because we find more promise in the quest for understanding than we do in absolute certainty. We form community to equip ourselves for the work of justice and peace for all people and to bring hope to the oppressed and despised. We recognize that being followers of Jesus can be costly because Jesus calls us to resist evil actions, that may result in the loss of familiar privileges - this is an honored tradition of the church where it has been most faithful.
