November, the month of the Holy Souls, is marked by a Service for the Holy Souls and the Bereaved on the first Sunday of the Month.
This first Sunday was also the Solemnity of All saints transferring All Souls Day to Monday.
For the Service, as usual, all those who had been breaveed in the last 12 months and whose loved one's funerals had been conducted by St Clare's Clergy, were sent an invitation. Many were present and others besides. A 'roll call' for the last twelve months featured, as did the placing of the crucifix, the Word of God and the lighting of memorial candles. After a period of silence prayers were said and the congregation invited into the Parish Hall for light refreshments.
