The Rev. Geoffrey Little is a lifelong Anglican and New Englander. After coming to Christ in college, he served for ten years with the South American Missionary Society (SAMS), first as a lay missionary in southern Peru and then on the SAMS staff in Ambridge, Pennsylvania. While in Ambridge, Geoff completed his divinity degree at Trinity School for Ministry. Ordained in 1992 in the Episcopal Diocese of Connecticut, he moved with his young family to New Haven, Connecticut, where he has lived and worked ever since as a pastor in intercultural urban ministry. Geoff earned a second master’s degree in Intercultural Studies at Fuller Theological Seminary in 2004. In 2010, Geoff and his wife, Blanca, joined the ACNA Anglican Diocese in New England and established All Nations Church and All Nations Christian Academy in New Haven. All Nations Church brings together Spanish- and English-speaking people in bilingual worship and fellowship.
A Bible-Open Faith Community
All Nations Church is a Bible-believing body. We hold the Old and New Testaments to be the inspired word of God and “useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the servant of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work” (2 Timothy 3:16). On Sundays the pastor preaches devotional sermons based on one or more of the appointed readings in the Sunday lectionary of the Anglican Book of Common Prayer. Whether to children in our Christian school, adults in healing retreats, or elderly residents in local nursing homes, the approach is always to open the Scriptures, exploring the questions raised and the answers provided for Christian living.
An Intimate Community That Eats When It Meets
At All Nations Church we enjoy one another’s company, andwe care for one another in keeping with the biblical exhortation to “Rejoice with those who rejoice; mourn with those who mourn. Live in harmony with one another” (Romans 12:15-16). It brings us great joy to share a meal and fellowship together as a family.
A Community Plugged In and Sent Out
All Nations Church has its signature outreach ministry in the city, our Christian elementary school All Nations Christian Academy. We are also active members of Bridges of Hope, a cooperative of churches in New Haven doing larger-scale ministry projects such as a mentoring program for public school children in low-income housing projects and “I Heart New Haven,” an annual service day dispatching Christian teams from many churches to do community service in our beloved city. We also work closely with the 180 Center, a discipleship program for men in recovery.
A Healing Community
All Nations Church believes in the present day manifestation of gifts of the Spirit, including Jesus Christ’s ongoing ministry of healing. We have ministers trained in confessional healing practices. We participate in healing conferences and conduct our own healing retreats, all with the full expectation that when we anoint with oil and lay on hands, God can and will bring healing to those who ask in faith.
All Nations Christian Academy
All Nations Christian Academy is an outreach ministry of All Nations Church. By the grace of God the school has been in operation since 2007 and continues to offer a great education to elementary school aged children of Greater New Haven, K - 4th grade.

Today in the Spirit
For the week leading up to Sunday, 10 December 2023, published in Anglican Compass
Bible devotions out of the Anglican lectionary for the upcoming Sunday
Like many of our favorite movies, Advent 2 takes us, suddenly, to a flashback in time from the noise and upheaval of the Son of Man coming on the clouds to the silence of the Judean wilderness and the sight of a strange man dwelling there...
