Oh, what their joy and their glory must be,
those endless Sabbaths the blessed ones see!
Crowns for the valiant, to weary ones rest;
God shall be all, and in all, ever blest.
Hymn 623
All Souls Day is the time of year we remember all who have died, especially in the past year. We light candles in their memory, offer prayers for the continued life with Christ, and celebrate the Eucharist in thanksgiving for their time with us and their place at God's table in heaven.
This year, we remember especially those buried from St. Peter's Church: Joe De Furia, Sheila Itinger, Patricia Nixon, Robin LeMoine, Bob Robinson, Glen Kersting, Lou Tovey, Anne Tovey
We also pray for our own family and friends we love but see no longer in the prayers of the people.
Remembering is a sacred practice of our faith. We invite you to join us for this meditative service with gentle music remembering those we love but see no longer.
Any names emailed to Father Dirk by 12 Noon, November 6 will be included in the service.
Rest eternal grant unto them, O Lord;
and let let perpetual shine upon them.
