Honoring the Departed | St. Columba's Episcopal Church

Tuesday, November 2nd at 6pm
All Faithful Departed Service

November 2 is formally known as the “Feast of All Faithful Departed,” and is a special time to remember those close to us who have died. Susan Flanders will lead a quiet, meditative service in the Chapel with piano music, prayers and then a time for all who wish to speak about a loved one or to simply remain in silence and remembrance. We will also light candles in memory of these people we have loved and lost. Within an hour or less, we end the service with a prayer and blessing.

Sunday, November 7th at all services
All Saints Day

We remember all who have died and will offer a collective prayer for those we love but see no longer.

Monday, November 8th at 7:30pm

Mother’s Group will gather for Holy Eucharist to remember loved ones who have passed away across the last couple of years. Join us to break bread, share stories and remember those we have loved and lost.

The opposite of faith is not doubt, but certainty. ~ Anne Lamott

Joining a church doesn’t mean you don’t have big questions or doubts. Deciding to be part of a loving community of faith means you’re open to exploring and wrestling with those big questions and doubts. Most people here did not grow up in The Episcopal Church. Some have never been a member of any church. Many have a background in a different church or faith tradition. At St. Columba’s, there will be many opportunities to learn, ask questions, and get to know other pilgrims along the way. Our deepest hope is that everyone who steps through our doors knows they belong here.

Let's Stay in Touch!

A pledge is a promise - a promise to give a certain amount over the course of the following year. We don’t expect you to fulfill your pledge in one lump gift. Many find they can give more when pledging and then giving incrementally over the course of the year.

Pledging before the start of each calendar year is critical for clergy and staff to develop an annual budget and plan to serve you and our wider community.

Why Give? God asks us to share our time, talent and treasure. A life of generosity is at the root of Christianity. The Bible encourages the tithe – or 10% of your annual income – and we encourage you to think about what a meaningful gift would be for you.

When you give to St. Columba’s you help fund our ministry in the community, our worship, and the staff that supports our community as we strive to Live God’s Love.

Our mission is funded by you – St. Columbans and other supporters.

Give Now

St. Columba’s is grateful for your generosity. We accepts gifts in the form of cash, checks, appreciated stocks, Charitable IRA Rollovers, Donor Advised Gifts, and matching gifts. If you would like to include us in your end-of-life charitable gift plans, we accept bequests, life income gifts, and gifts of special assets (real estate, closely held stock, life insurance).
