About this Event
🕯️🌿 All Souls: A Franciscan Gathering of Remembrance and Hope
Inspired by the Franciscan spirit of fraternity, simplicity and reverence for all creation, join us at Glasgow’s Southern Necropolis for a gentle gathering to remember those who have died and honour the love that remains.
Together, we will light LED candles, write personal messages to loved ones, share a short Franciscan reflection, and walk in silence, making space for meditation, remembrance and prayer.
In the spirit of Saint Francis, we will seek peace in stillness, recognise our shared humanity, and discover how friendship and compassion can sustain us through grief.
📅 Saturday 7 November
🕛 12 noon
📍 Franciscan Circle, Southern Necropolis, Gorbals, Glasgow
Whether you are grieving, remembering someone special, or simply seeking a quiet moment of reflection, you are warmly welcome.
You do not need to be Christian to take part. This gathering is open to all, whatever your faith or background. Simply come as you are, with an open heart.
🕊️ Come together in remembrance, prayer and Franciscan friendship.
