November is traditionally a time when the church remembers those who have died. 

It includes All Saints Day (1st November ), All Souls Day (2nd November ) and Remembrance Sunday (2nd Sunday in November). Many churches also hold separate remembrance services for the bereaved (although we are holding a Blue Christmas on the Longest Night of Wednesday, 21st December, at St Paul’s this year).

As we enter into the season of Remembrance, we are especially conscious of those whose lives have shaped our lives but who are no longer with us. In one sense, their absence serves to highlight the significance of all that they have given to us. Equally, we recall those who have shaped the life of our Church and of our community and the faith that they have passed on to our generation.
