Note:  Setting our clocks back as Daylight Savings ends

 

All Hallows and Día de los Muertos arrives in this season of spirits. All around the globe, this is a time for honoring our ancestors and communing with our beloved dead. Many traditions teach this period is when the veil separating worlds is at its thinnest. Join us for this special service as we explore this convergence of holidays and the meaning of death in the midst of life. 

 

As we prepare to create our annual ofrenda (offering altar) for “Our Beloved Dead” service, you are invited to bring pictures, mementos, marigold flowers, fruit, or other offerings to be placed on the ofrenda in the sanctuary. To include items in the service, you can drop them off on Thursday, October 29, from 10 am to 4 pm. You may want to call ahead to let the church staff know you’re coming to drop the items off. Please be sure to wear a mask, practice social distancing, and label anything you would like to pick up next week.  Tel.310-829-5436 ext. 102 or 101.
