All Saints' Sunday - November 2, 2025

October 31, 2025

Join us this Sunday at 10:30 a.m. either in person or online for this service on All Saints' Sunday

A lit altar candle is glowing in a glass candlestick. In the background are purple, pink, blue, orange, and green circles, as well as two black crosses, three black stars, and one black vine with six leaves.

Since the earliest days of Christendom, the faithful have gathered to give thanks for the life and ministry of the saints – women and men whose witness to the gospel of Jesus Christ has been a blessing in every generation. 


Here's what you can expect at Glebe St-James this Sunday:

  • Rev. Dr. Teresa Burnett-Cole will lead the service.
  • Wendy Bergeron will welcome us.
  • Ruth Burnett-Cole will acknowledge that the land on which we gather and work is the traditional and ancestral territory of the Algonquin People, unceded and unsurrendered. 
  • David Brown will read the scripture from Luke 6:20-31.
  • The Theme Conversation will reflect All Saints' Day.
  • Our Minister of Music, James Caswell and the choir will lead us in music and song; the Gift of Music will be an arrangement of the old Irish hymn "Be Thou My Vision" by Bob Chilcott.


Here is the bulletin for the service to follow along with the words of texts, hymns, songs, and prayers. You can join the service live at 10:25 am on YouTube; after the service ends, it will be available to watch as a recording.
