Dear Friends,
At this time of year, we are turning our thoughts once more to all those from our communities who lost their lives in service of our country. For many of us, Remembrance Sunday is also an opportunity to reflect, and remember those known personally to us who served during World Wars I and II, and in all conflicts since. Our thoughts and prayers are also with all those who are caught up in wars around the world today: Ukraine; the Middle East, Gaza, Lebanon, and Isreal; Ethiopia; DRC; South Sudan; Yemen; Somalia. We pray that “justice will roll down like waters” as the Old Testament prophet Amos put it (in Amos 5:24) and that God will be with us as we strive for peace. We especially pray that all people on the side of good, justice and peace will prevail; and all wrong doers will fail. We will be remembering and honouring all those who have served their country and we will be thinking of those who are suffering due to violence and conflicts today. All are most welcome to join us at our Remembrance Day Service on Sunday 10 November at the Peace Garden starting at 10:50am, and we will remember all those from this village who gave their lives for this country.
God Bless,
Clare
