Remembrance and Hope: a service of music and prayer
On Sunday, November 5, we will honour Remembrance in a special service at 10 am at the church. We will remember those who gave their lives in the two great wars of the 20th century, and we will honour and pray for those who have suffered and continue to suffer in the world today due to intolerance, racism, and genocide. We look within our country and we look to the world outside. We look back a century and we look to last week.
The young soprano Arielle Soucy will sing music from Gabriel Fauré, Edith Piaf and Jacques Brel. Our own Steve Scales will sing Simon and Garfunkle and the choir will contribute music that is sure to evoke many memories.
Join us downstairs after the service for a lunch hosted by SouthWest Music.
Soup, bread, dessert: simple but delicious. Two years ago we held the last Dinner&Show – Music of the 30s and 40s with the SouthWest Showstoppers, and as we did every year through the 30s and 40s era, we held a raffle. Well, the raffle is back, to be drawn after lunch. A little bit of fun, with a hug and a smile. See you November 5.
