Newsletter for November 7

This Sunday, we celebrate the Feast of All Saints. This past week, we celebrated All Souls, known in Latin American cultures as Dia de los Muertos. In this week's newsletter, Mother Posey shares a picture of the quilt displayed as a pulpit hanging that day and gives us some background on how it came to be.
