11/11/2021(1 event) Armistice Day So what about the silence?
Here's how this poem came to be written: Lord of the nations - We remember with grateful hearts the men and women of our country who went forth to protect the liberty we enjoy but who did not return!
Help us recognise the debt we owe them so that we may strive, in our own lives, to protect the freedoms that were won at so great a cost.
And so we commit to your safekeeping those who have died in war; those whose memory we treasure; those who have sacrificed themselves in the service of humankind.
Eternal rest grant unto them O Lord And let perpetual light shine upon them. May they rest in peace. AMEN

16/11/2021(1 event) Anniversary of the murder of 6 Jesuits and their 2 companions in El Salvador On the morning of November 16, 1989, an elite battalion of the Salvadoran Army entered the grounds of the Jesuit University of Central America, with orders to kill Father Ignacio Ellacuría—an outspoken critic of the Salvadoran military dictatorship—and leave no witnesses. When it was all over, the soldiers had killed six Jesuit priests, a housekeeper and her 16 year old daughter in cold blood. The Jesuits Massacre is one of most notorious crimes of El Salvador’s 12-year civil war, which left over 75,000 people dead including most famously Archbishop (now Saint) Oscar Romero.
A PRAYER FOR TODAY God, Creator of life and human dignity, we celebrate the witness of your martyrs for faith, for peace, and for justice. Have mercy on the souls of these departed ones and grant them peace. May the memory of the Jesuits and the members of the Ramos family who died in El Salvador in 1989 help us move to a deeper understanding of the demands of justice and guide us to speak your truth to those in power.
Give us the courage to raise our voices for those who suffer oppression and violence. Grant us your joy as we work to bring your kingdom to this world. Amen.

19/11/2021(1 event) Children's Grief Awareness Week Grief is something we all experience at some point in our lives.

A PRAYER FOR THOSE WHO HAVE DIED Eternal rest, grant unto them, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon them. May they rest in peace. AMEN
A PRAYER FOR THOSE WHO ARE GRIEVING Jesus, healer and teacher, you know what it is like to lose someone you love and you wept for your friend, Lazarus. Help me make sense of what is happening, because some days I feel angry, some days I feel lost, some days I feel helpless, some days I don't feel at all. Send me comfort and people to walk with me.
Help me through this pain, and let treasured memories sustain me. Help me to have faith that my loved one is now with you, free from pain and worry.
Help others who are grieving this same loss.
I ask this in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. AMEN
