What is All Saints Day?

All Saints’ Day holds a special place of reverence and celebration within the liturgical calendar. Rooted in Christian history and theology, All Saints’ Day serves as a poignant reminder of the interconnectedness of the Church, both earthly (the Church Militant) and heavenly (the Church Triumphant). Celebrated on the Sunday closest to November 1st, All Saints’ Day is a time for Anglicans to honor the saints who have gone before, acknowledging their exemplary lives and enduring legacies.

In the Anglican Communion, the observance of All Saints’ Day is characterized by a profound sense of continuity with the historical Church. Anglicans believe in the “communion of saints,” a concept that underscores the unity of the entire body of Christ, transcending time and space. This communion encompasses the living members of the Church, those who have passed on to the heavenly realm, and those still on their pilgrim journey on earth. All Saints’ Day is an occasion to celebrate this mystical connection and express gratitude for the saints who have played pivotal roles in shaping the faith. Read More

Samaritans Purse – Operation Christmas Child Collections Underway

Every year Samaritan’s Purse has collected shoebox gifts filled with toys, school supplies, and hygiene items for children around the world. Since 1993, more than 209 million children in more than 170 countries and territories have received an Operation Christmas Child shoebox. The project delivers not only the joy of what, for many kids, is their first gift ever, but also gives them a tangible expression of God’s love.

Shoeboxes can be picked up in the Fellowship Hall. You can also build a shoebox online by selecting items at https://sampur.se/47MaQBd. This is $25 which includes the $10 shipping fee. You can also add $6 for the cost of materials to send the child to a 12 week class to learn about Jesus. We aim for 40 boxes by Sunday, November 18, 2024. For questions, contact Karen Rauch.
