All Saints’ Sunday

Next Sunday, November 1, 2026 
8am Holy Eucharist Rite I
10:30am Holy Eucharist Rite II
with Solemn Procession, Station at the Baptismal Font, and Pledge Ingathering

All Saints’ Sunday joyfully remembers before God the saints of every age, whose lives reflect the light of Christ, bound together with God’s people across time. We honor both the well-beloved saints of history, as well as those whose names are known to God alone. We encounter saints in the everyday moments of life, and we give thanks for their witness — in our workplaces, at the grocery store, in our neighborhoods, churches, and schools. In each, the presence of Christ shines forth, reminding us that sainthood is born in the faithfulness of ordinary lives.
