Remembrance Day

Christ Church Remembers

 

I lift up my eyes to the hills –

from whence will my help come?

My help comes from the Lord,

Who made heaven and earth.

Psalm 121.1-2

 

On Monday 11th November, Christ Church came together as a school family to remember all those who have fought and served for our freedoms. We reflected on why we wear the poppy and its meaning and our House Captains read the poem for the fallen by Laurence Binyon. We also observed two minutes silence which was brought to a close by the playing of the last post.

 

A video of our House Captains reading the poem can be found via the link below:

At the end of our remembrance service, the following prayer was also shared:

 

We think of all who are angry - bring them peace

We think of all who are jealous - bring them peace

We think of all who are greedy - bring them peace 

We think of all who hate - bring them peace 

We think of all who are afraid - bring them peace

We think of all who have lost -bring them peace

We think of all who have fallen - bring them peace

 

Amen
