Membership in the Choir is free of charge and open to any boy who enjoys singing. No prior musical experience or religious affiliation is required: basic receptivity to musical training, and a firm commitment of time for rehearsals and services are the only requirements. The best time for a boy to join the Choir is between 3rd and 5th grade, although older boys (through 7th grade) are also considered for admission. We begin with an interview – a simple, stress-free process requiring no preparation, although a parent is required to attend. Most boys come to the Choir with no prior singing experience. Please contact Andrew Sheranian, the Organist and Master of Choristers at , 617-436-3520, ext. 212, or use the secure form for more information or to set up an interview.

All Saints is located in the south Dorchester neighborhood of Boston, just off Peabody Square, at 209 Ashmont St. and is a very short walk from the Ashmont T station on the Red Line. (Click icon for map.)
The five principal levels of our buildings are handicap accessible, served by a five-stop elevator. Handicap access into both buildings is by a walkway and ADA-compliant ramp from the parking lot to the Ashmont Street door of the church. There are handicap accessible bathrooms on four levels of the church and parish house.
There is a private parking lot for 47 cars and on-street parking on both Ashmont Street and on the other streets surrounding the church.
Four of these spaces are reserved for Zipcars.
Our emphasis at the Parish of All Saints is on sacramental worship (the Mass or Holy Eucharist) celebrated in a traditional Anglo-Catholic style, with strong orthodox teaching and preaching, supportive pastoral care, a caring parish family, and responsibility to our community and the greater world.
