All Souls' Day is our patronal festival and is on the 2 November each year

The Parish of Umhlali, which is situated in the Borough of the Dolphin Coast, on the North Coast of KwaZulu Natal, came into existence as a separate Parish of the Diocese at the beginning of 1998. Prior to that All Souls Church had formed part of the Parish of Stanger. Anglican worship in the district goes back to the 1840's

Our early morning Sunday service follows a fairly traditional pattern, conforming to the South African Anglican Prayer Book, but including four hymns or choruses

The later service is much more informal, the Parish has permission to use the Alternative Order for Celebrating the Eucharist. The first part of the service is flexible and informal, allowing time for testimonies, sharing, teaching, and the manifestation of the Gifts of the Holy Spirit.

More on how we worship

The Parish of Umhlali is part of the Diocese of Natal, which is in turn part of the Church of the Province of Southern Africa (CPSA). The CPSA is in full communion with the See of Canterbury.
We also have fraternal relations with churches in out area; namely the Umlhali Methodist Church and the North Coast Dutch Reformed Church

We actively promote the Alpha course as a way of reaching into the community. Since 1996, about 20 courses have been held, attended by nearly 300 people. The course is an excellent introduction to the Christian faith. We also hold Children's Alpha courses once a year, and these have been bringing young children into God's Kingdom.
