All Saints Chapel: A Chapel of Grace Episcopal Church, Sheboygan, WI Greetings in the Name of Christ! Grace Episcopal Church, Sheboygan, has offered summer services for vacationers in the Elkhart Lake area since the 1930s. With the Hayssen Foundation, Grace Church acquired property on County Road P and built All Saints Chapel in English country style. It was completed and consecrated in 1951. Ever since its consecration, All Saints has offered Sunday services roughly late May through early September, as well as weddings and other religious services throughout the year by appointment. The head priest, or rector, of Grace Church is the head priest of All Saints, and the rector calls on auxiliary clergy to officiate for most services at this Elkhart Lake mission church. At one time, the current property had a hunter’s cabin. Now, for gatherings we have St Hubertus Hall, named after the patron saint of hunters. All Saints Chapel celebrates St Hubertus Day in early November with a Blessing of the Hunters. Throughout the year, visitors often come to the chapel and grounds for prayer, meditation, recreation, landscape painting, and photography. You are welcome at any time to enjoy the peace and beauty of this most holy place. The prayers of the Ever-blessed Virgin Mary, St Hubertus, and All the Saints protect you! The blessings of God the Holy Trinity go with you! Chapel interior Crucifix behind the altar The Story of Saint Hubertus Hubertus was born the son of a duke in 656 A.D., in what is now France. He led a life full of luxury, leisure, and education. He was good looking and intelligent, strong and energetic, influential and friendly. When he was young, he especially loved the outdoors. He spent much time hunting and was known as an expert bowman. He hunted so much that he didn’t have much time for prayer, hunting even on holy days, which was considered a great sacrilege. His beloved wife and hunting companion, Floribanne, died during Holy Week of 684 and on that Good Friday Hubertus went hunting to console himself. As Hubertus was hunting a stag, he had a vision of a crucifix (the Cross with the crucified Jesus on it) shining between the stag’s antlers. The Lord Jesus Christ told Hubertus in the vision that he needed to find purpose and comfort not only in hunting but even more especially in serving the Gospel. He told Hubertus to go visit a holy bishop, Lambert, to find out what to do next. Hubertus was touched to the heart by this vision and was eager to do what the Lord told him. Hubertus was so committed to the Gospel of Jesus that, under the guidance of holy Bishop Lambert, he gave all his wealth to the poor and his noble titles to his brother. He became a priest and spread the Gospel of Jesus among the country people and hunters he loved so much. He fasted and prayed a great deal, was a moving preacher, took care of the poorest in the countryside, and was a wise steward of the forest and wildlife. Hubertus eventually became Bishop of Liege and was known for his miraculous works of healing. He died peacefully in 727 and was recognized as a saint in 743. His body is in St Hubertus Church in Belgium, which has been the site of pilgrimages and miracles ever since. People who love the outdoors find St Hubertus to be a friend and intercessor, with his special concern for hunters, bowmen, hunting dogs, hunting raptors and falconers, and the inhabitants of the forest. His Feast Day is November 3rd. He has a window dedicated to him in All Saints Chapel, Elkhart Lake, that depicts his vision of the crucified Jesus in the stag’s antlers. And the fellowship hall on the grounds of the chapel is named St. Hubertus Hall, not far from where a hunter’s cabin once stood on the chapel grounds. Grace Episcopal Church and its chapel All Saints are honored to share in the Blessing of the Hunters with you each year, on or around November 3rd. St Hubertus and all you saints, pray for us!

There, Our Lady asked her to build a replica, in Norfolk, of the Holy House where she had been born, grew up and received the Annunciation of Christ's impending birth. Lady Richeldis immediately constructed a house, 23' 6" x 12' 10", according to the plan given to her. Its fame slowly spread and in 1150 a group of Augustinian Canons built a priory beside it. Its fame continued to grow and for centuries it was a point of pilgrimage for all classes and the recipient of many expensive gifts. By order of King Henry VIII, during the Reformation in 1538, the House was stripped of its valuables and its statue of the Virgin taken to London to be burned. The present statue of Our Lady was enshrined in Walsingham in 1922, beginning an era renewed pilgrimage and cooperation at the shrine between Catholics and Anglicans. In 1929 the parish priest, Fr. A. Parker Curtiss, launched the idea of installing the first exact copy of Our Lady of Walsingham at Grace Church. Since that time, there have been daily prayers said at our American Proto-Shrine referencing the prayer requests brought by our parishioners and by the many annual pilgrims that visit every fall when the Grace Walsingham Pilgrimage is held.

- About Us | gracesheboygan
About Us “…when Christ is revealed, we will be like him, for we will see him as he is.” (1 John 3:2) Our worship and music embrace all our senses, our emotion, and our energy. We do this for ourselves, of course. But above all, we offer our full selves like this to God because this delights God. What better life together is there? So, we sit, kneel, stand, and genuflect. We chant, sing, speak, and listen. We might cross our bodies, hearts, and mouths. We gladly receive the opportunities for silence and tranquility that our worship brings. Above all we listen, pray, and adore. Nothing is mandatory or compulsory. We each participate as we each wish, how and when we each feel called. Together, in our worship, we learn to adore and to glimpse a world bigger and greater and more beautiful than seems possible. This worship is best understood by being experienced. So come and see all this brought to life on a typical Sunday morning. Feel free to ask a priest or usher any question you wish. Our Mission in the Community: As an Anglo-Catholic congregation, we know Christ has sent us out to encounter him not only on the altar or in the congregation, but to encounter Christ in the people who live outside our walls, too, especially in the poorest and most troubled. “Sent out” is what the word mission means. We pray at every celebration of the Mass for the life of the world and this is our first and last mission. We likewise take all prayer requests for any concern. People may write them on cards and put them in a drop-box in the church, make a request to our church office online, or in any other way people would like to contact us. We will pray for those specific concerns at rosary prayer and Evening Prayer throughout the week in our Shrine of Our Lady of Walsingham. There, we ask Holy Mary and all the saints to pray with us for the life of the world. Members of Grace Church are incredibly generous, giving on their own of their time, talent, and money to various charities, very often in hidden ways and sometimes at considerable cost to themselves. Grace has given generously as a congregation to various ministries and needs over the years. Recently, Grace donated substantially to Episcopal Migration Ministries in support of Afghan refugees. Grace parish members for years have participated in Meals and Wheels, lead AA groups, helped found Love INC, as well as sharing in board and service duties in that effective organization. And our parish’s governing board, or vestry, is now prayerfully seeking how we might go even deeper in our service in our immediate neighborhood and town. Please pray for our ongoing discernment! Together, our life of prayer and service for the life of the world is what our Holy Tradition calls The Works of Mercy. How would you like to get involved in the Works of Mercy at Grace? Please contact Deacon Paul Aparicio: 920-452-9659; PAparicio@gracesheboygan.com or our rector, Fr William Bulson: 920-452-9659; wbulson@gracesheboygan.com Subscribe to our newsletter, The Angelus Thanks for submitting!

Ordained Christian ministers of other denominations are welcome to preside at weddings at All Saints. The Rector of Grace Church is happily available for requests to preside at your wedding, as well.

For weddings at Grace Church in Sheboygan, the Rector of Grace Church will normally be the officiant of your wedding. Please contact the church as soon as possible for the Rector's availability. Pre-marital counseling is required for all couples getting married at All Saints whether you have counseling with your own choice of clergy or counselor, or with clergy of Grace Church. The Rector will accept a letter from your presiding minister or counselor, no later than sixty (60) days in advance of your wedding date, affirming you have been or will be adequately prepared and instructed for Christian matrimony (often by three or four counseling sessions). Along with acceptance of your application and the letter concerning your pre-marital counseling, the wedding date is secured by a non-refundable deposit of $750 no later than sixty (60) days prior to your wedding. This deposit will be applied to remaining wedding fees. Please notice the fees that are applicable to “Members” and “Guest Couples.” For the purposes of wedding applications and fees, a "member" is someone who has been attending Grace Church/All Saints for a reasonable period of time, is known to the Clergy, Wardens (elected lay leaders), and Treasurer of Grace Church through their involvement in ministry and Christian formation, and by some level of financial commitment to the life of congregation. All Saints Chapel can accommodate 40 seated guests with a limit of 48 persons maximum in the Chapel at any time. Prior to and on your wedding day, the couple, guests, photographers, wedding consultants, food servers, etc., shall follow the direction of the hosts and representatives of Grace Church closely, charitably, and graciously. Couples and guests agree to make every reasonable effort to keep All Saints, St Hubertus Hall, and the chapel grounds clean and in good condition.

- Christian Formation | gracesheboygan
“…until all of us come to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to maturity, to the measure of the full stature of Christ.” (Ephesians 4:13) We don’t say “education” here. We say “formation.” Formation is God shaping us into the real human beings we were made to be, and that Jesus Christ came to make possible through his self-giving love, through sacrament, prayer practices, learning, mutual support, and service for the life of the world. In Christ, God became human so that we might finally become truly human and share fully in the life of God. In groups that meet regularly, we learn spiritual and prayer practices to encounter each other in love, and to encounter the Spirit of God. We ponder and explore the Holy Bible as the ancient Word of God that is timelessly alive today. We go deep in our Tradition, to receive wisdom from holy ancestors who ground and guide us for the life we live today. The most important place God’s Holy Spirit forms us to be alive like Christ is in our regular, communal prayer and sacramental worship. Next, we are formed by our individual practices of Mass, prayer, penitence, and performing the works of mercy. Children’s Formation: We joyfully include children in Christian formation, certainly in the life of Mass, prayer, penitence, and the works of mercy. We also have children’s formation 9-10 am on Sunday mornings. Parishioners mentor our children in the Big Story of the Bible, ground them in prayer and Holy Tradition, and guide them to reflect on how to live as Christians in daily life. We combine the curriculum Weaving God’s Promises , a lectionary-based program from the Episcopal Church, with learning how to “do” the faith in our parish and the world, what we call praxis. Adult Formation: The heart of formation for adults at Grace is called Catechesis. That’s a deep word that means, roughly, instruction straight from the mouth. It is for the spiritually hungry and the honestly curious. It is a rich and committed form of instruction lasting several rewarding months of discussion, reading, prayer, sharing, and growth. Youth and adults enter Catechesis for preparation for the sacrament of Baptism, Confirmation, or for being received in the Episcopal Church. Catechesis usually begins in autumn each year and meets once a week. It culminates in the sacarments of Baptism or Confirmation, and membership in the life of the Church. In Catechesis , we will: - get a handle on the Big Story of the Bible - learn proven practices of prayer, especially in using the Book of Common Prayer - find out what's particular and good about the Episcopal Church and Anglicanism and Grace's Anglo-Catholic way - find opportunities to serve God's world - and through all the above have a chance to get closer to God and each other. Foundations for Christian Life (Catechesis) Thursdays, 6:30 - 8:30 P.M. Please contact Fr. William, who will lead the group, so he can get you set up to participate: wbulson@gracesheboygan.com ; 920-740-2308. Adults also meet on Sunday mornings 9-10 am for Ad ult Forum . Forum often includes reading the Bible, reflecting on ancient Christian teaching, discussing the latest developments in the world and culture, and reading old and new books together. While this group includes teaching and lecture at times, it mostly includes generous portions of seminar and discussion for mutual formation. Adult Forum Schedule 2023 - 2024 Please join us in St. Mark's Room downstairs on the Sundays listed below: Reading Revelation Responsibly - Led by Cindy Weiss All Sundays, September 24 - December 17 See Cindy Weiss or contact the parish office for the book, which is $25 and called Reading Revelation Responsibly Migration Ministry and Grace Episcopal Church - Led by Deacon Paul Aparicio All Sundays, January 7 - January 28, 2024 Basics of the Bible and the Book of Common Prayer - Led by Father William Bulson All Sundays, February 4 - March 17, 2024 We'll learn how to use the practical structures for regular reading and pondering the Bible that our Book of Common Prayer provides, gain confidence in reading and pondering the Bible and maybe be changed and equipped in the process.
