Red for Remembrance

5th November 2018 by admin

Remembrance Day displays in St Mary’s.

Every year in November we remember all those that fought for their country. This year marks the centenary of the end of the first world war. To mark this occasion a number of people in Littlehampton have worked hard to create a display of knitted poppies.

During the last week a number of ghostly soldiers have appeared in church.

Every evening this week you will also notice St Mary’s glowing red in respect for those that lost their lives.

More displays will appear during this week and the church will be open until 15:00 on Saturday for you to view these displays first hand.

On Sunday 11th November the Parish Mass will start at 09:30 (not 10:00) and will be followed by the Act of Remembrance at 10:55 at the War Memorial. The Civic Service then follows when everyone has assembled in St Marys.
