All Saints Sunday

Meaning of All Saints Sunday
All Saints Sunday is an annual reminder that Christian faith is a gift that is passed on from generation to generation. All Saints reminds us that we stand on the shoulders of all those faithful witnesses who have gone before us; the living and the dead.
The feast of All Saints teaches that grace is relational. We know and experience God’s love through the people God gave us in the past, God gives us in the present, and God will continue to give us in the future. God’s steadfast presence is revealed and made real through people who love God enough to allow God’s grace and light to flow through their lives that gives hope to the world.

“For in the one Spirit we were all baptized into one body,
Jews or Greeks, slaves or free,
and we were all made to drink of one Spirit.”
~ 1 Corinthians 12:13
Message “Let Us Pray for Our Nation” Rev. John Song
Regardless of the election’s outcome and its aftermath, these questions remain:
What is God’s vision for our nation?
What will the Church bear witness to?
What hope will God’s people embody?
And yes, we will pray together for our nation.
Matthew 7:15
“Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing
but inwardly are ravenous wolves.”
1 John 4:1
“Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God; for many false prophets have gone out into the world.”
Luke 1: 52-53
“He has brought down the powerful from their thrones and lifted up the lowly;
he has filled the hungry with good things and sent the rich away empty”
