Class 5 Liturgical Prayer of Remembrance

28th March 2022 By gemawright

In Flanders fields the poppies blow

Between the crosses, row on row,

That mark our place; and in the sky

The larks, still bravely singing, fly

Scarce heard amid the guns below.

John McCrae

Class 5 gathered together for a liturgical prayer of Remembrance.

 

 

 

         

 

Prayers of intercession

We bring all our hopes and prayers to God, our Father:

We pray today on Armistice Day for all those who have died in both World Wars and all conflicts since. Let us always remember those men and women who sacrificed their lives so that we might live in freedom and peace.

Lord in your mercy Hear our prayer 

We pray for all those who suffer because of conflict today and ask that God may give them peace. We remember the fighting in Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan, Yemeni and Gaza, which has affected so many families. (Pause)

Lord in your mercy Hear our prayer 

We pray for the families of service men and women who have lost their loved ones, who sought to bring peace to communities throughout the world. May their families receive comfort and consolation in their grief and loss.

Lord in your mercy Hear our prayer

We pray for peace makers and peace keepers who seek to keep our world secure and free. May God keep them safe.

Lord in your mercy Hear our prayer

We pray for all world and faith leaders that they may receive the gifts of wisdom in the search for friendship and peace.

Lord in your mercy Hear our prayer 

In this month of remembrance we pray for all those who have died, especially members of our own families and friends. We pray also for all those who are sad because they have lost someone.

Lord in your mercy Hear our prayer

We say together our family prayer

Our Father

These following words are taken from a poem, For the Fallen written by Laurence Binyon, a few weeks after the outbreak of World War 1. They are famous because they have been adopted by the Royal British Legion for ceremonies of Remembrance to commemorate fallen Service men and women. – Emily

They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old;

Age shall not weary them nor the years condemn

At the going down of the sun and in the morning

We will remember them

We will remember them

Excellent Charity Work

6th December 2020 By adammcphail

A member of our school community has taken part in brilliant acts of charity! Archie in Class 5 sent out an appeal for donations to the East Durham Trust, an organisation which helps to feed families in the East Durham area. Archie collected over 70 selection boxes, which will be given to children this Christmas, along with other donated items and gave them to the East Durham Trust this week. His hard work was very much appreciated, and our whole school community are very proud of his charitable work. Great work Archie!
If you would like to find out more about the East Durham Trust, including how to make a donation or to see what services they offer, please visit https://www.eastdurhamtrust.org.uk/
