All Souls Day

Share in our Seminary tradition this All Souls Day

As autumn’s days unfold, the Church invites us to look to all those who have walked this path before us – both those recognized as saints as well as our departed loved ones now living in God’s presence.

Every year, on the evening of All Souls Day, our Seminary Community gathers in the dark chapel. A solitary candle burns next to our Book of Remembrance. Its pages are now full and heavy with memory made holy by faith. During our prayer service, we call out the names inscribed in this Book of Remembrance. The young man who wrote them comes forward, lights a candle, and places it in a box of sand before the altar. Our hearts take light and hope from the quiet, growing glow of grace-filled memories of all those who have loved us and gone before us to God.

To share in the All Souls Day prayer service offered by the seminarians and Capuchin Friars at Saint Lawrence Seminary, please fill out the form below. You honor us with the opportunity to pray with and for your deceased loved ones this All Souls Day and always.
