In the midst of Guising, Halloween, Day of the Dead, and the many other variants across the globe we are today reminded of the real reason to celebrate. Not Ghosties. Not Ghoulies. Not Zombies.

Just real people who follow Jesus.

Most saints are not recognised by holding the title of Saint Someone-or-other, but by their faith in Christ and their service of God and humankind. Most saints simply get on with whatever role God has given them in whatever situation they find themselves, not seeking publicity or fame, but content in knowing that they serve the Lord. Most saints do not live dramatic lives of note to historians, yet make a real difference to those around them.

You’ve probably met some. You may well be one!

To be a saint is simple – a life dedicated to following Jesus’ example of self-sacrificing service of others, guided by the Holy Spirit, and empowered by faith in the Eternal, Infinite, Loving God.

Oh! That’s you!!

Join us to give thanks for the saints who have helped us and re-commit to being saints where we are.

God Bless,

REV Mark RS Smith
