REMEMBRANCE SUNDAY and REMEMBRANCE DAY

Remembrance Sunday

There will be an Act of Remembrance outside the church at 9.30am this Sunday, 8th November, led by the Rev’d Jenni Duffy. Although circumstances are different this year because of the current lockdown, we shall still be able to commemorate those who gave everything for a freedom they would never know.
The shortened service will include The Last Post followed by 2 minutes silence, the Reveille and Kohima Epitaph, followed by prayers and a blessing.

 

Remembrance Day 

At 11am on Wednesday 11th November, the church bells will be rung to mark the beginning and end of a 2-minute silence, along with the nation.

 

 

If you happen to be out walking at that time, you might like to stop on the green opposite the Village Hall on Main Street to commemorate those soldiers who lost their lives in the Great War. It is also an opportunity to show appreciation for those who have lost their lives in the 2nd World War and more recent conflicts.
