All Souls' Service: Commemoration of the Faithful Departed
Advertisement
This is one of our most popular and most poignant services, at which we commemorate family, friends and loved ones who have passed away.
At the heart of the service, St Bride’s Choir will sing an anthem, after which the names of the dearly departed are read aloud and candles lit on the altar in their memories.
If you plan to attend and would like someone to be remembered by name during the service, please contact our administrator [email protected] before 12 noon on 1st November.
Dozens of living flames flicker in the church, symbolising our loved ones who are now held safe in the arms of God, even though they are beyond our reach.
The choir then sings Allegri’s famous setting of Psalm 51, Miserere mei – Have mercy upon me, O God, after thy great goodness.
All are welcome to attend this service.
"One short sleep past, we wake eternally
and death shall be no more; Death, thou shalt die." – John Donne
