Growing as Kingdom People
As the weather starts to turn colder, help our churches be a place of warmth and
welcome. Offering hope and a place of belonging to others.

All Saints’ and All Souls’ Days
No Christian is solitary. Through baptism we become members one of another
in Christ, members of a company of saints whose mutual belonging transcends
death. All Saints’ Day and the Commemoration of the Faithful Departed on All
Souls’ Day both celebrate this mutual belonging.
All Saints’ Day celebrates those in whose lives the Church as a whole has seen the grace of God powerfully at work. It is an opportunity to give thanks for that grace, to be encouraged by the example of the saints and to recall that holiness
may grow in ordinary circumstances, as well as the extraordinary crises, of
human living.
The Commemoration of the Faithful Departed celebrates the saints in a
more local and personal way. It allows us to remember with thanksgiving before
God those we knew but see no more.
May Christ who makes saints of sinners, who has transformed those we remember, raise and strengthen us that we may transform the world; and may
God give to us and to all those we love, his comfort and his peace, his light and his joy, in this world and the next. Amen.
