What does the return of Christ mean to you? What do you believe Christ's return will look like? And what is your role, if any, in helping Christ's return to be real-ised in our world?

A photograph of a cemetery. There is a row of black, gray, & brown gravestones stretching out in the distance, slightly out of focus. The gravestones are decorated with American flags, red & yellow flowers, small pumpkins, & a tiny plastic football helmet (all of which suggests the photo was taken in October or November). The grass is green & there are some brown leaves scattered on the ground. 📸 credit unknown
"To all of these, grant your peace, O Lord, & let light perpetual shine upon them. Make them to be numbered with your saints in glory everlasting, because you are kind. May they rest in peace. Amen."

Feliz #DíaDeLosMuertos!
The #DayOfTheDead, and observance to pay respects to family who have died and which coincides with the Christian period of #Allhallowtide, which includes the Roman Catholic celebration of #AllSaint’sDay, which is celebrated on November 1st and #AllSoulsDay on November 2nd.
"... that you have prepared for those who truly love you, through Jesus Christ our Lord, who with you & the Holy Spirit lives & reigns, one God, in glory everlasting. Amen."
~ BCP, p. 245

"The Communion of Saints" painting by Ira Thomas. A great multitude of diverse people are shown hugging each other. The crowd seems to stretch out as far as the eye can see over hills & valleys. In the upper right hand corner the golden sun is rising. The sky is blue but covered with golden clouds reflecting sunlight.
"You are no longer strangers & foreigners, but fellow citizens with the saints & members of God's family."
~ Ephesians 2:19

Let's not be complacent, do not get rid of #halloween decorations yet, we still have three days to #allhallowtide.
It is not time to start #christmas celebrations. We still have few weeks until #thanksgiving after #allhallowtide.

Lord Jesus, #LightOfTheWorld,
we think of those today who are afraid, hungry, grieving, anxious, lonely or in pain.
Please surround everyone in need with your love and comforting presence.
May each person know your peace and receive the help they need.

教会で、2週間前の本番の最終練習。キリスト教徒にとってハロウィン季節はお盆なので、亡くなった人の為に歌った。🙏🏾
Final practice clip before All Souls Day (3rd day of #Allhallowtide) which is a remembrance mass for the dead.🕯️🕊️
Singing with a pro bass singer was truly something special. Soothing and inspirational.💖😌

As #Allhallowtide nears, the seers, #CunningFolk, and pellers guard against spirits stirring in lonely boneyards.
The magic-doers cast protective charms; herbs were burned to rail against ghostly touch, ensuring hearths stayed warm and fields safe through darkening nights.
