From the Pastor - November 1, 2026
This Sunday is All Saints Day. We celebrate the
baptized people of God, living and dead, who are the body
of Christ. As November heralds the dying of the landscape
in many northern regions, the readings and liturgy call us
to remember all who have died in Christ and whose
baptism is complete. At the Lord’s table we gather with the
faithful of every time and place, trusting that the promises
of God will be fulfilled and that all tears will be wiped away
in the new Jerusalem. We also celebrate two of our young
people who will be confirming their faith this Sunday with
the Affirmation of Baptism! We rejoice with Alaina Forbes
and Kaylee Lantrip who will be confirmed along with three
other young people in Lynchburg. Congratulations!
We pray God's blessings for all!
