Banwell All Souls Service

Occurring
Sunday 25 October 2026 Sunday at for 1 hour
Venue
St Andrew's, Banwell
Address
Church Street Banwell, BS296EA, United Kingdom

Each year, the Church sets aside a special time to remember loved ones who have gone before us. Our All Souls Service is a gentle and reflective occasion, where we read aloud the names of those we wish to remember, light candles in their memory, and spend time together in prayer and thanksgiving.

Everyone is warmly welcome, you do not need to have had a funeral at our churches to take part. If you would like a loved one’s name included, please complete our online form (click the 'More info' button below) or email it to [email protected]. Please ensure any submissions reach us by Friday 16th October to ensure inclusion in the service.

By sending us a name, you are consenting for it to be read aloud in church and shared on the livestream of the service.
The service will also be livestreamed, so anyone who cannot attend in person will still be able to join us online.
In recent years we have also followed the beautiful South American tradition of placing lit tealights on graves in the churchyard after the service, and all are welcome to join in this act of remembrance.
