Expect to see a Dia de los Muertos Altar at First UU in the foyer outside the sanctuary when you arrive for services Sunday, November 3rd, compliments of Austin Sanctuary Network. Some ASN members can’t return to their homeland to honor their ancestors where they were buried to follow the traditions of their communities.
The ceremony will start at 2 p.m. that Sunday to honor loved ones who’ve passed away and UUs are welcome to bring a photo of your loved ones, who you’d like to honor, if you want to join us for the ceremony. ASN will provide simultaneous interpretation in Spanish and English. After the ceremony, we’ll gather in Howson Hall for a potluck of dishes our loved ones enjoyed most during their lives. For more info and to tell us if you plan to attend the ceremony please email Peggy at insideamigos@austinuu.org.
