Dia De Los Muertos Chapel

About this event

Day of the Dead is an important celebration for Mexican and Latino people, in which we remember, honor, and pray for our loved ones who have passed away. People in Mexico make richly decorated altars in their homes, cemeteries and churches, to remember and pray for the souls of the faithful departed. The deceased loved ones are remembered with offerings of food, drinks, photos, and objects that the person enjoyed in life. These things are laid out on the altar table. Day of the Dead prayers remember the legacy and good deeds of our ancestors as we pray for them and with them. You are invited to bring a picture or memento of a loved one to add to the Ofrenda during the chapel service (an “ofrenda” is an altar or display that honors deceased loved ones during the Mexican celebration of Día de los Muertos, or Day of the Dead). The whole Luther community is invited to join us for chapel break, in-person or online, regardless of faith tradition or background. Connect to our livestream or come in person! This time is intentionally set aside for you to pause and connect — we hope to see you!
