This All Souls’ Day, we honor the Feast of All Faithful Departed and remember those we have lost with a service of prayer and music, and a special Light the Night luminary event.

SCHEDULE

Light the Night
6:30-8:30 PM // Parish Grounds

Before, during, and after the 7 PM service, our parish grounds will be illuminated with hundreds of paper luminaries, each one a symbol of love and memory. We invite you decorate a bag for those you’d like to remember and to walk among the lights, offer prayers, and reflect on the saints and loved ones who continue to shape our lives.

All Souls Worship
7 PM // Nave

This is a sacred time of peaceful reflection and holy grieving as we honor family and friends who have gone before us. During worship, we will prayerfully name those who have died since All Saints’ Day 2024, as well as loved ones remembered by our parish community. To add a name to the remembrance list, please contact our Parish Administrator, Deen Hubin (dhubin@ststephens.com).
