We will remember them
St Cyprian’s Church will remember those lost at war at a Remembrance Sunday this week.
ST CYPRIAN’S Church, 603 Umbilo Road, will hold a Remembrance Sunday service at 9am on Sunday, 11 November.
An invitation is extended to the community to join this auspicious occasion which marks the centenary of the end of WW1 when the Armistice was signed in 1918, at the eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month. There will be a lament by a piper, a trumpeter, a performance by the Glenwood High School band and hymns suitable for the occasion.

Hardy Wilson from the SA National Society will also give a synopsis of WW1 and has set up a display of WW1 memorabilia at the church. The MOTHS will also do their tribute at the service.
“We encourage the community to support this day and honour the memory of those who paid this sacrifice,” said Father Dane Elsworth from St Cyprian’s.
After the service, the MOTHS will have refreshments, boerewors rolls and hamburgers on sale.
