All Saints' Day: November 1st, 2017, celebrated Sunday November 5th


All Saints' Day 2017 will be celebrated Sunday, November 5th at Christ Episcopal Church.  Following Episcopal guidance, All Saints' Day may also be celebrated on the Sunday following Nov. 1.  All Saints' Day commemorates all saints, known and unknown, on Nov. 1. All Saints' Day is one of the seven principal feasts of the church year, and one of the four days recommended for the administration of baptism.   Traditionally we remember our deceased family members on All Saints' Day by reading their names as part of the service.  You can include other saints you may have known who were not family members.  Please provide Father Riley or Jane Barnett the names of the saints you wish to be remembered prior to our service on November 5, 2017.
