Next to Christmas and Easter, All Saint's is the day I love most in the Christian Year. On this day, the church has the opportunity to remember the men and women of the faith that have served God faithfully. Some of those saints have gone on to be with God and some are in our presence now. During the communion liturgy for this day, the names of all our members that have died since our last All Saint's service are read. There is also and opportunity for those present to call out the names of the "saint's" in their own lives that have been the witnesses in the faith that have nurtured their walk. I truly hope that you will consider attending this very special service. Take a moment to listen to the YouTube vidoe of the hymn, "For All the Saint's". We will be singing this great hymn of the faith to open our service.
