El Dia de los Muertos:
All-Ages Festival Worship and Pot-Luck Lunch
Sunday, November 1st
at Peace United



In a beloved Peace UCC tradition, we gather this Sunday morning 
to give thanks for the lives of those who have died, and to remember, together, the ways in which  their love and spirit live on in us, and in the world.

You're invited to bring a photo of a loved one you'd like to remember, and to come a little early if you'd like to take part in our procession!

And...please do plan to stay for lunch! If you'd like to bring a pot-luck dish that reminds you of someone you love, you'll have a chance during lunch to tell us about your recipe and the one who gave it to you...

We're looking forward to seeing you this Sunday!


God's own peace to you,

Yael
