Today, we celebrate the 150th anniversary of the Guild of All Souls, the Anglican devotional society which seeks to promote the Church's teaching in regard to the Faithful Departed through intercessory prayer for the dying and for the repose of the souls of the departed, encouraging Christian customs at burial, especially the offering of the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, and promoting the two great doctrines of the Christian Creed, the Communion of Saints and the Resurrection from the Dead. The Guild was founded by the eminent priest Blessed Arthur Tooth.
