1st November, 2026 All Saints

Dear Friends,

We celebrate the great Feast of All Saints. And who are they? Well, listen to today’s Gospel: “Blessed are the poor in spirit…” and so on. Does this identify individuals, nationalities, or people who lived before Jesus walked this earth, or only people who have heard his message and try to live it to the best of their ability? And what about those who have never heard of Jesus or who lived before his time? We are so used to dealing with time and space that we forget the story of creation and who the author of creation and all life is. Let’s just ponder for a moment the words of hymn 888, “when I needed a neighbour were you there, were you there? And the creed and the colour and the name won’t matter, were you there?” We are blessed in this area to have a large diversity of people from many nations. Would Frimley Park Hospital function without them? I do not believe so. When we are ill, we could not care less from where the staff originated or what creed, or if any, they profess. It would do us all well to think about it. Are they not all God’s children?

This Monday is All Souls Day. Mass is at 10am and 7.30pm Monday 2^nd November.

Blessing of the Graves at Ship Lane Cemetery, Farnborough on Sunday 1^st November, beginning with a prayer service at 2pm.

Prayers at St Peter’s Cemetery, Frimley at 3pm on Sunday 8^th November. You can come and pray for your deceased family and friends there.
