All Saints Sunday: November 2; Honoring Those We Love

 
November 2 is All Saints Sunday, the day set aside in the Christian Year to remember those who we love who have made a significant impact on our lives and faith and have completed this life and now live forever in the church eternal.
 

During the time of remembrance in our traditional services, the names of the members who have died in the past year are spoken aloud during worship and a bell is rung in their memory. The All Saints Remembrance Banner is a symbolic reminder of all of those who have touched our lives and have been witnesses to our faith throughout our lives. Each bell represents a person whose legacy and life continues to be carried within our own.
 
We look forward to this memorable service and hope it will be a blessing to everyone as we remember those who have touched our lives, shared life with us, and offered to us a glimpse of what the love of Christ is truly like. We honor each of these this Sunday as we remember the saints who have gone before us.

We would like to invite everyone to hang a bell or bells on the Remembrance Banner to honor those who you love who are the saints who have gone before us.

The banners will be used in the processional at the beginning of our Traditional Services on All Saints Sunday. As the bells ring at the beginning of the service, we are reminded of the sacredness of this life and of the lives of those who live within us and whose love fill us.
