Join us in the Cathedral for the Cathedral Eucharist, All Saints, 1 November 2023
ALL SAINTS
From its earliest days, the Church has recognised as its foundation stones those heroes of the faith whose lives have excited others to holiness and have assumed a communion with the Church on earth and the Church in heaven. Celebrating the feast of All Saints' began in the fourth century. At first, it was observed on the Sunday after the feast of Pentecost; this was to link the disciples who received the gift of the Holy Spirit at Pentecost, the foundation of the Church, with those who were martyrs, giving their lives as witnesses for the faith. In the eighth century, a pope dedicated a chapel to All Saints at St Peter's in Rome on 1 November. Within a century, this day was observed in England and Ireland as All Saints' Day.
