All Saints, and our Stairway to Heaven

A meditation preached at Ellerton Centre, Toronto, on November 1, 2026, on the solemnity of All Saints. In Genesis 28 we read of the dream of Jacon in Bethel, where he sees a stairway of angels ascending and descending. Today, as we celebrate all saints, we have to behold that stairway to heaven. At its head stands Christ, beckoning us to follow. On the steps are his saints, inspiring us to take the steps that lead to Christ and happiness. Like the emblem on Superman's chest, it does not signify that we must be supermen, but men and women of hope. Music: Lifting Dreams - Aakash Gandhi Youtube free
