All Souls Service - Sunday 1 November
Have your loved ones remembered
We will be holding this year's All Souls Service on Sunday 1 November at 4.30pm.
Due to Covid-19, seating in church will be rather limited, but you can still have your loved ones remembered at the service.
Those you love, both those who have died recently and those who died longer ago, are loved by God as much (even more???) as they are loved by you. Remembering them in prayer is most appropriate: in this way we acknowledge their contribution to our lives, how they shaped and formed us, and we offer their memory back into the everlasting love of our Creator and Redeemer.
This year we are asking all those who have access to the internet to provide us with the names of those they wish to have remembered using this form.
Thank you

I'm Beth, Life Event Coordinator. Over the past few months, we have been busy with baptisms, weddings and funerals. From small wedding blessings with only a couple and a priest present to large affairs with over 300 guests we feel glad to have supported people during key moments in their lives. I've noticed that life event services need cooperation from the whole team at St. Mary's: Cleaners keeping the church spotless; Clergy and Vergers running a seamless service on the day; talented Musicians providing deeply moving music; the Events team rearranging schedules and tours to fit services in the diary; much admin preparation before the day; careful diligence from our Finance Manager to ensure every penny of donations are sent to families charity of choice. The love and care put in by the team here is apparent to me and hopefully reassures you that St. Mary's will be here for you in both the highlights and hard times that you face. Beth Herbert
