Each year at All Saintstide we hold a simple Memorial Service for all of those for whom we have conducted a funeral service during the past year. We send a personal invitation to their relatives and invite them to bring other members of their family and also friends who might wish to come. The service contains music, readings and prayers and we always read out a list of the names of those who have died. This year the service will be held at St Mary's on Sunday 6 November at 3.30pm. Anyone who wishes to is very welcome to attend.
