December 🎄 at All Saints Amsterdam
Got this forwarded by a friend? Hey! We’re All Saints, a young Episcopal church in Amsterdam centred around radical inclusion and reconcilliation. Come join us for a service and good food every Sunday at 6 at Vrijburg.
Hello sweet community,
Okay wow, it’s Advent already, can you believe?! As we come to the end of 2025, the Bishop’s Committee of All Saints Amsterdam looks at the year ahead with enthusiasm and confidence. Conversations with members of our community make it clear: we’ve got a good thing going, and we’re curious about what the future holds.
As we hope you’re used to by now, we’ll continue gathering every Sunday at 6, sometimes online, but usually at Vrijburg. Check the schedule below for the details. Good to know, from now on, you can find All Saints events in our brand-new calendar on Church Center.
Happening this month at All Saints
Every weekday at 09:00, morning prayer on Zoom
Sundays at 18:00:
December 7: Chime in during our annual general meeting
After a lot of hard work we have been able to acquire the coveted status of ANBI organisation. The long and short of it is that this makes your donations to us tax-deductible. But there’s a catch: we need to have our administrative ducks in a row, too.
On December 7, right after service, we’ll do a quick 30-minute meeting to get that administrative stuff out of the way. We’ll also update you on our finances and what 2026 will look like for All Saints. If you can’t join live, we’ve got you covered: there’s a Zoom link in the event.
“How do I prepare?”
Read our Policy Plan (9 pag.), Statutes (5 pag.), Privacy Policy (4 pag.), and Code of Conduct (2 pag.)
Tell us a) on Sunday in person, b) on Sunday online, c) by replying to this email about any concerns we must adress before you can sign off on these documents
Relax, you’re done.

I’m Zinzy Waleson Geene, and I write this newsletter on behalf of All Saints Amsterdam.
I can’t wait to see you (again)!
