All Saints' Day celebration has a long history in the worship life of the Christian Church. It began as a commemoration of the martyrs who had died for the faith, and it has since become a day when we honor and remember those who, in death, have joined the Church Triumphant, as well as the faithful saints of the present who serve Jesus Christ. Martin Luther held that all Christians are simultaneously sinner and saint--a sinner because of our rebellious nature, but a saint because of salvation in Jesus.

We gather here today to give thanks to God for (name of property), to remember what it has meant to us, and to pray for the (name) family who are leaving it.

Each Sunday congregations worship using our wonderful orders of worship. However, do we know why we do the things that we do in worship? Where did they come from? What are the Biblical roots of our liturgies? What do they have to say about how we live our lives once the hour service is over. This resource will help your congregation study how Lutheran's worship.
