Join us this Sunday at 10:30am for

All That We Have Been and The Shape of What Remains:

An Ancestors Ritual of Memory and Becoming

We are made of the lives that came before us—but we are not bound to become only what has been. In this special all-ages service, we’ll gather to remember those we’ve lost, honor the gifts and complexities of our inheritances, and reflect on what we choose to carry into the future.

NOTE: We will be building a community altar during this service. Please bring photos, mementos, or memorabilia to add in honor of your own beloved dead and those whose legacy you carry forward.

By Rev. Sarah Pricket

With music by M Street

Get Ready for Our Monster Mash Parade!

Join us Sunday, October 25, immediately following worship, for our Monster Mash Parade during our All Souls Intergenerational Service! Children and youth are invited to wear costumes and parade around the sanctuary while everyone cheers them on.

Everyone can join the fun!

  • Wear a costume and join the parade!
  • Bring non-edible treats like stickers, pencils, or spider rings to share.
  • Bring a canned good or non-perishable food item to support those in need.
  • Clap, cheer, and celebrate from your seat!

Replacing Trunk-or-Treat this year, our Monster Mash Parade will be filled with costumes, laughter, generosity, and community spirit.

Whether you march, donate, share treats, or cheer, we hope you’ll join us!

Options for Younger Children:

Our youngest friends can join the Chalice Children in the Childcare Room (Ages 2-4 yrs, room 2, downstairs). Families can also watch the service from the Family Room, or keep young children at the front of the sanctuary in the Wee Worship area.
