The FUMC Denton Chancel Choir & Orchestra presents Dan Forrest’s Requiem for the Living as a part of a special community All-Saints worship service. Join us for this choral/orchestral masterpiece as we celebrate the lives of the saints in our community.
All Saints is a time to rejoice in all who through the ages have found rest eternal. The day reminds us that we are part of one continuing, living communion of saints. It is a time to express our gratitude for all who have kept the faith, for those who have take the gospel to the ends of the earth, for prophetic voices who have called the church to be faithful in life and service, for all who have witnessed to God’s justice and peace in every nation. To rejoice with all the faithful of every generation expands our awareness of a great company of witnesses above and around us like a cloud (Hebrews 12:1). Reminded that God was with the faithful of the past, we are reassured that God is with us today, moving us and all creation toward God’s end in time.
