2026 Annual Meeting - January 25, 2026

Update: Now Fully Virtual

On Sunday, January 25, All Saints Church will hold its Annual Meeting virtually via Zoom, following our Morning Prayer service at 9:00 a.m. The Annual Meeting will begin at 10:00 a.m., using the same Zoom link.

At the meeting, members will be asked to vote to:

  • affirm new Vestry members,

  • affirm Synod Delegates, and

  • approve the purchase of 908 Leon Street, along with an increase in the mortgage to $1.2 million (from $1.1 million, as approved at the 2025 Congregational Meeting) in connection with the property at 920 Leon Street.

All Saints members are strongly encouraged to participate so that we may reach a quorum and conduct the business of the church. Because the purchase of property is on the ballot, our bylaws require a simple majority of members to vote in the affirmative. This means 81 member votes are needed for approval.

To allow all members to participate—especially in the event of weather or power disruptions—online ballots are available now and will remain open through Wednesday at 5:00 p.m. Members are encouraged to vote electronically as soon as possible so that every voice may be included.

Please note: The Annual Meeting Zoom room will open at 9:45 a.m. Members who are not attending the 9:00 a.m. Morning Prayer service are asked to log on by 9:45 a.m. so quorum can be confirmed before the meeting begins. The Annual Meeting will begin promptly at 10:00 a.m. The meeting will be recorded for members who are unable to attend live.

If severe weather results in widespread power outages and the meeting cannot be held on Sunday, the Annual Meeting will be held virtually on Tuesday evening at 7:00 p.m., using the same Zoom link.

About the Virtual Ballot

The Annual Meeting ballot is now available online, allowing all eligible members to participate regardless of whether they are able to attend the meeting live.

Voting is limited to church members only, with one vote per individual member.

Each eligible member has received a unique, private voting code by email, which is required to access the online ballot. Voting codes allow members to vote anonymously, while ensuring that only eligible members are voting and that each member votes only once.

In households where members typically share an email address, individual voting codes have been sent to the separate email addresses on record. Members in these households are encouraged to check all email accounts associated with their household.

Voting codes are used solely to confirm eligibility and are not connected to names or identities on the ballot. Ballot responses are collected without identifying information.

If you believe you are a member and did not receive a voting code, or if you experience any difficulty accessing the online ballot, please contact Julie Kelly-Stump at julie@allsaints-chd.org, and she will be happy to assist you.
