On March 10, 2013, All Saints in Hershey celebrated its 75th birthday.
The congregation opened a time capsule that had been discovered during its current renovation. The time capsule was in a dated stone (1955) from an earlier renovation. The contents will be copied and a scrapbook made, then they, along with items from this year, will be placed into a new time capsule and to be secured during the completion of the renovation and expansion project currently underway. During the 8:00 service, the young people and the congregation of All Saints heard from some of the founding families, and other long time members, some of the history of All Saints and some wonderful early memories. A table was available to all with many pictures, early vestry minutes (including the minutes of that first historic meeting which established the congregation and selected the new parish's name). This marks the beginning of a year long celebration of All Saints' 75th year.
