On this Remembrance Sunday we recall all those who were killed in the two World Wars; civilians as well as those in the Armed Forces. Today we also remember the victims of the many wars and conflicts since: The Falklands, Korea, the Balkans, the Middle East… We remember all the victims of terrorism, not least of all, those who lost their lives in this country. We pray for all the children and young people among us, that they may learn the ways of peace and tolerance and hate violence and war. We
pray for ourselves, that we may seek reconciliation, and learn the terrible lessons of our history, so that this history may not continue to repeat itself. On this Sunday let us again cry out to God for peace and reconciliation.
