You are warmly invited to join us this Remembrance Sunday as we come together as a community to remember and honour all those who have served, sacrificed and given their lives in times of conflict.

Our Remembrance observance will begin with a parade, followed by the Act of Remembrance at the village War Memorial and a service in church.

Order of events:
10:00am Parade musters at John Taylor High School
10:15am Parade departs from John Taylor High School
10:45am Act of Remembrance at the War Memorial
11:15am Service of Remembrance in church

Together, we will pause to remember those who have so much, reflect of the cost of conflict, give thanks for those who serve, and pray for peace in our world today.

Everyone is welcome to join us, with uniform and medals encouraged, whether you are a regular member of our church community, or simply wish to come along and remember.

We will remember them.
