Room In The Inn
Twice a year the All Saints family bands together to open its doors for a week’s food and lodging to our Room In The Inn guests. All Saints is well known for the hospitality and wonderful meals it provides for its guests.

A large number of All Saints parishioners are required to provide dinner and breakfast in the Gathering Space and a hearty bag lunch for our guests when they depart in the morning. Additionally, two parishioners stay overnight in the Gathering Space while our guests are staying with us. Daily, the Room In The Inn Committee transports our guests to and from All Saints from the intake center at Roanoke Island Presbyterian Church.

The Room In The Inn program provides approximately 13 weeks of hospitality to local men and women during the coldest time of the year.

For seven years, All Saints has included this wonderful program, which provides food and shelter for those in need, as a recipient of After Dark at All Saints contributions.
