Rooted in Jesus: Saturday Eucharist
We invite you to watch a recording of Saturday’s special closing Eucharist. Attendees remarked the Eucharist was one of the most intimate and unique services of recent memory: the special arrangement of seating, the feast arrangement of decorations and communion at the center alter, the unique back-and-forth communion, all tied together with reflective and participatory vocals throughout.
All Saints’ and All Souls’ Day
As we draw further into fall toward Halloween, remember that the season is not just about ghosts, ghouls, and trick-or-treating! This time is significant in our Episcopalian calendar: importantly, fall marks a time of reflection and remembrance. While Halloween captures much of the excitement, the Church encourages us to shift our focus toward All Saints’ Day and All Souls’ Day, which follow shortly after, inviting us to honor those who have lived lives of faith and to remember our loved ones who have passed.
All Saints’ Day on November 1st celebrates the lives of saints, those whose legacies of faith continue to inspire. The day after, All Souls’ Day, is a more personal time, allowing us to remember family members and loved ones, recognizing the influence they’ve had on our lives. Together, these holy days remind us that we are part of a greater community—past, present, and future—united in faith and love.
