Meditation for All Saints’ Day

Welcome screen.... (displayed on arrival, music playing...) Today we remember….

Those who have lit our way...

Those whose lives made ripples that have reached us.... Another way to describe those who have lit the way would be to call them those whose lives have made ripples... TELL STORY.

Those who have gone ahead of us… …whether that was hundreds of years before us, or a couple of years ago.

Welcome screen.... (displayed on arrival, music playing...) Today we remember….

Abraham & Sarah Who left their home behind to set out on a journey into the desert without knowing where they were going, but who also disbelieved the promises that God had given them.

Moses Moses, who saw the burning bush and was chosen to debate with Pharaoh to free the people of Israel from slavery in Egypt, but who tried to turn God down on the basis that he wasn’t good at speaking... Who saw the burning bush and was chosen to to free God’s people from slavery in Egypt, but who tried to turn God down because he wasn’t good at speaking...

The prophets The old testament prophets who spoke out against the problems they saw in their societies, and who have inspired people throughout history to take a stand against injustice.

Mary & Elizabeth Mary and Elizabeth, one of them probably a teenage mother, one of them an older mother... One of them probably a teenage mother, one of them an older mother...

Lydia Lydia, an unlikely woman who became one of the first non-Jewish Christians in Europe. An unlikely woman who became one of the first non-Jewish Christians in Europe.

Jean Vanier After Biblical times there were too many people to choose from, so I’ve just picked out 3 who have inspired me. Jean Vanier, who’s the founder of the L’Arche community, which offers homes and spiritual support to people with learning disabilities. But he started by inviting two men to move out of institutions and live in his house.

Brother Roger of Taize Brother Roger of Taize, who started an international religious community by providing a safe house for Jews at the start of WW2. He looks otherwordly in this photo, but he was certainly still human and infallible in his interactions with his brother monks.

In remembering we carry them with us…

Knowing that some things in life cannot be fixed; they can only be carried.

Who has lit the way for us? With music: Let all mortal flesh What ripples do we want to leave?

Lighter of lights – illumine us  Fire of fires – thaw us  Power of powers – strengthen us  Lover of lovers – warm us Teller of tales – encourage us  Destroyer of darkness – save us  Touchstone of truth – examine us  Summoner of stars – amaze us Wellspring of wisdom – weather us  Water of life – refresh us  Dancer of days – delight in us  Breath of the universe – bless us Prayer by Ruth Burgess
