All Saints Sunday

Who is your hero of the faith?

While some will point to more famous people who have transformed the world like Martin Luther or Mother Teresa or even St. Paul, most people identify someone more close to home. It's a grandmother who loved Jesus. A grandfather who was a man of prayer. A mother whose love embodied God's. Or a father whose unspoken faith could be heard by all. These are the ones who have shaped us personally by making faith come alive.

This Sunday is All Saints Sunday. It is the one day of the Church Year that we dedicate to the memory of all those who have died in faith and now have joined the Church Triumphant. For the most part, these are the unsung heroes. Nevertheless, they are important to us.

So, who is your hero of the faith? The one who introduced you to Jesus? The one who modeled prayer? The one who lived out their faith? The one who reflected the love of God?

Got a name?

Now, join us on Sunday as we remember them and the impact that they have had on our faith journey. And join me and others as we light a candle for him or her and "for all the saints who from their labors rest."

Let Light Perpetual Shine Upon Them!
