Multigenerational Service
Sermon Summary
We will celebrate the history and mores of the Day of the Dead, All Souls Day, and Halloween. Everyone is encouraged to come to church in costume to heighten our exploration of the very human archetypal need for the occasional mask wearing. Bring items of remembrance of lost loved ones for the communal altar, an Ofrenda in the Central American and Mexican tradition. Bring food to share during the receptions following both services. This service, lively and interactive, will heighten all of your senses.
