All Saints Services and Gathering of Names
All Saints celebrates the baptized people of God, living and dead, who are the body of Christ. As November heralds the dying of the landscape in many northern regions, the readings and liturgy call us to remember all who have died in Christ and whose baptism is complete. We will gather as a community to observe All Saints on:
- Tuesday, November 1 at 11 a.m. outdoors in the Garden of the Resurrection
- Wednesday, November 2 at 11 a.m. in the Chapel of the Incarnation
Please fill out this form to include the names of people who have died in the past year that we can offer in our Wednesday liturgy.
