All Saints’ Sunday


Almighty God, you have knit together your elect in one communion and fellowship in the mystical body of your Son Christ our Lord: Give us grace so to follow your blessed saints in all virtuous and godly living, that we may come to those ineffable joys that you have prepared for those who truly love you; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who with you and the Holy Spirit lives and reigns, one God, in glory everlasting. Amen.

Dr. Robert Duvall returns with Mortality, yearning, and faith: new poems by Christian Wiman. In his just-published book, Once in the West, Wiman pursues, through images and metaphors, his on-going quest for faith and understanding in the face of loss and doubt. The class will read and discuss some of these poems of “the mind finding what will suffice.”
