[The Sun Chronicle] 2 April 2007--Just two months after being forced to leave the parish property on North Main Street, the All Saints Anglican congregation that broke away from the national Episcopal Church is on its way to acquiring a permanent home.

The congregation is in the process of purchasing the former Hebron United Methodist Church on South Main Street near the Seekonk line that had been operated as the Hebron Village Outreach Center in recent years.

The Rev. Lance Giuffrida of All Saints Anglican said the congregation voted last weekend to buy the church, and is negotiating a purchase-and-sales agreement.

"We're very excited," he said. "This is a church that wants to come back as a church. We will be breathing new life into it."
