Peace and Remembrance

Rev Andy came in to our assembly today to discuss with us the importance of remembrance for peace. He brought some special medals and souvenirs from his family's time of service in the armed forces, some of which were over 100 years old, and told us about how remembering the costs of war can help us work every day for peace.

Children beautifully sang the hymn 'Peace is flowing like a river' which includes the verses 'Love is flowing...', 'Hope is flowing...', 'Joy is flowing...'. Rev Andy talked to us about how important each of these things are: love, joy, hope, in bringing peace and how peace can create these things in us too.
