I'm New Here

We encourage all parishioners to register with the parish. Parishioners must be registered and active in the parish prior to all sacramental preparation.  An “active parishioner” is determined by faithful attendance at Mass and regular support of the parish through time, talent and treasure (tithing on a weekly basis).

When You Visit

Visiting a new church can be intimidating

What should I wear? Where do I park? Where do my kids go?

We understand the many thoughts that can come from visiting a new church, so we want you to feel completely comfortable when you visit. Below are some frequently asked questions. If you have any additional questions, don't hesitate to contact us or talk with an usher when you visit.

What should I wear?

We want you to feel comfortable. After all, we are thrilled that you're joining us and want you to be more focused on the service than what you're wearing. In the summertime, it's not uncommon to see people wearing sandals, shorts, and a shirt. Others prefer to still put on their "Sunday best," and that's fine too! However, we do request that shorts be of a conservative length (no “short-shorts”) and that in general, clothing be respectable and conservative.


How do I get to All Saints?

Our parish is located at 1534 N. Recker Road Mesa, Arizona 85205.  Here is a map.


Where should I park?

Our campus provides ample parking in several lots.  Handicapped parking is available around the church and buildings.


Where do my children go?

We encourage families to participate in Mass together.  We do offer Cry Rooms for those times when small children may need step out during Mass for a quiet space.


I’m not Catholic, how do I know when to sit, stand and kneel?

There’s no need to be self-conscious about the postures and responses used during worship. Most visitors just follow the lead of the our parishioners. However, we do have worship aids located in each pew that provide you with the order of the mass, the postures, and the words to each prayer. If you don't see a worship aid in your pew, ask an usher, and they will be happy to bring you one.


I’m not Catholic, is it okay for me to participate in communion?

Communion, or The Eucharist, is the most intimate expression of our faith. Catholics believe that the host is literally the body of Christ, transformed from bread by the priest presiding over the service. Most evangelicals think of Communion as symbolic, so it makes sense that they are not as strict about having the right relationship to it as Catholics and Orthodox Christians who believe it is a sacrament and the true presence of Christ. So, if you are not Catholic, we ask that you not receive communion. However, those not receiving the Body of Christ and Precious blood are invited to come forward with their hands crossed over their chests for a special blessing.


Am I expected to put money in the offering?

If you are visiting with us, we don't expect you to put money in the offering, and you are welcome to just let it pass you by. If you consider our parish your church home, we'd love for you to prayerfully consider giving to our parish on a weekly basis. You can give by check or cash during the service, or you can sign up for online giving here. 


I have a hearing problem, is there any special assistance?

All Saints has a state of the art sound system throughout the church.  We are exploring additional resources for those with hearing aides to be added to our system in the future.
