History
Established in 1951.
In 1948, under the guidance of Dean Carmen and Bishop Kinsolving, Trinity Cathedral of Phoenix, Arizona formed a committee to discuss church expansion in Phoenix, as the city showed great promise for growth. A priest was delegated to officiate at the first service, held on March 4, 1951. There were 23 adults and 19 children in attendance. In 1953, a candlelight service was held at Trinity Cathedral and All Saints’ advanced from a mission to a parish. The Vicar became Rector and the Planning Committee became the Vestry. By the grace of God, All Saints’ Episcopal Church and Day School has bloomed into a teeming 11-acre plot where every year thousands of people come for spiritual refreshment and where every school day nearly 500 children come to be educated in the light of God. The Reverend Poulson C. Reed was called as our new Rector in June 2009 and he started August 2009. He came from St. John’s Cathedral in Denver where he was the sub-dean.
