All Saints’ Day Celebrated

All Saints’ Day celebrated on Sunday, November 3

I have heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love toward all the saints, and for this reason I do not cease to give thanks for you as I remember you in my prayers. – Paul’s letter to the Ephesians

On November 3, St. Michael’s will celebrate the Feast of All Saints’ at both the 8 am and the 10:15 am service.  During this service, we will remember those saints who have gone before us and loved ones who have died, as well as recognize ourselves as those ‘saints’ who have been called to follow Jesus with our whole selves.   On this day, we will remember in our prayers those who have died during the last year.

• If you have people you would like to be named in the prayers, please add them to the book in the back of the church.
• If you have pictures of loved ones who have died whose lives you want to give thanks for, we will provide two tables in the chancel area (in front of the altar and in the corner) as a visible reminder of the saints who have come before us for worship that day.
• Because this is a major feast day, we will have incense at the 10:15 am service.
