Each year, the Church sets aside a special time to remember loved ones who have gone before us. Our All Souls Service is a gentle and reflective occasion, where we read aloud the names of those we wish to remember, light candles in their memory, and spend time together in prayer and thanksgiving.
Everyone is warmly welcome, you do not need to have had a funeral at our churches to take part. If you would like a loved oneβs name included, please email it to

. By sending us a name, you are consenting for it to be read aloud in church and shared on the livestream of the service.
The service will also be livestreamed, so anyone who cannot attend in person will still be able to join us online.
In recent years we have also followed the beautiful South American tradition of placing lit tealights on graves in the churchyard after the service, and all are welcome to join in this act of remembrance.
