At the eleventh hour on the eleventh day of the eleventh month – we will remember them.
The Armistice, an agreement to end the fighting of the First World War as a prelude to peace negotiations, began at 11am on 11 November 1918.
Armistice is Latin for to stand (still) arms.
To this day we mark Armistice Day around the United Kingdom with a Two Minute Silence at 11am on the 11th day of the 11th month.
Join us, and our community of veterans, for our service of Remembrance. Sunday the 13th November at the earlier time of 10.50am to allow us to observe the two minutes silence in memory of all those who have been impacted by conflict.
We remind all those who are serving or have served, or have family who have served that medals and uniforms are welcome to be worn. We have a wide community of those who serve or have served in the forces, emergency services and merchant navy at Holy Trinity. You are most welcome to come and join us and pay your respects with us.
All are welcome to join us in church. Alternatively, to join us live head to ourYouTube channel, the service will be uploaded to this page immediately after the service and will also be available on our Facebook page to watch back at a time to suit you.
ACT OF REMEMBRANCE
Let us remember before God, and commend to his sure keeping: those who have died for their country in war; those whom we knew, and whose memory we treasure; and all who have lived and died in the service of mankind.
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. We will remember them.
