NORTH ATTLEBORO - Last Sunday the members of the newly-formed All Saints Anglican parish emotionally left behind their church on North Main Street after separating from the Episcopal Church.

This Sunday they celebrated in their new but temporary home at Fisher College in neighboring North Attleboro, where they will worship and minister until they can find a permanent location.

The gathering of about 100 people at the 9 a.m. service sang and prayed with gusto as their priest, the Rev. Lance Giuffrida, led them through an upbeat program that featured Bishop Jackton Lugumira of Tanzania as a special guest.

About 30 others had attended an earlier service, and more were expected at the later worship gathering at 11 a.m.
