On this day of Remembrance, we remember the courageous men and women who gave their lives in wartime and as a result of war.

As we remember the lives that have been lost, let us promise each other to work for the freedom of all who are oppressed in the world today.

We ask this prayer in the name of Jesus who taught us how to live.

Amen

The Ode 

They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old;

Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.

At the going down of the sun and in the morning. 

We will remember them. Lest we forget.
