We encourage you to have a candle with you to light during the service.

All Souls | Mid-Week Worship | October 28, 2020

Originally All Saints day, which remembered the canonized saints, was followed by All Souls day which was a time for people to remember the saints of their own life. Throughout history when there has been great loss of life in the world, All Souls has been a powerful container for people of faith to pour out their named and unnamed grief. We return to this ritual tonight.

Jesus’ summary of the law in today’s gospel echoes our first reading from Leviticus. We are called not only to love God with heart, soul, and mind, but also to love our neighbor as ourselves. It is out of such deep care that Paul shares the gospel with the Thessalonian community. In the confession of sins, we acknowledge that we have not loved God, neighbor, and self; yet we gather to hear the word of forgiveness and to be strengthened by word and meal to be signs of God’s love and mercy in the world.

In Isaiah we are given a vision of the great feast to come, when God will wipe away death forever. In Jesus’ parable about a great banquet, those invited do not come, so the invitation is extended to others. In our liturgy God spreads a table before us. Even amid anxiety and hardship we rejoice in the peace of God which surpasses all understanding. With great joy we feast at the table of the Lord, and we go forth to share the wonderful invitation with others hungering and thirsting for the abundant life of God.
