A time for looking back and remembering...
... and for looking forward with hope
On Sunday November 10th, we will pause to remember those who gave their lives in past and present conflicts and who did not live to experience the peace that followed on from the fighting. We'll also hold in our prayers those who still bear the scars of these wars, and their families too. It is a day of remembrance and hope as we commit ourselves afresh to the cause of peace. It is poignant to be doing this as war continues in the Middle East and n Ukraine.
We invite you to join us in our remembering.

And now these three remain:
faith, hope and love.
But the greatest of these is love.
