Today, we remember and give thanks for the saints who have gone before us—those who loved boldly, welcomed courageously, and worked faithfully for a world where all people know they are beloved children of God.
We especially honor LGBTQIA+ saints and advocates for racial justice whose lives, courage, and witness have helped make the Church a more welcoming and inclusive place.
God of love and belonging,
We give thanks for the saints who have gone before us, whose courage opened doors and whose love made room for others. Comfort those who grieve, strengthen those who continue the work of justice, and inspire us to live as saints in our own time. May we carry their light forward, building a Church where all are welcomed, included, celebrated, and loved.
Amen.
We remember. We give thanks. We carry their light forward.
