6.00 pm Memorial Service: This service has been arranged with bereaved families and friends in mind. It seeks to give people an opportunity to remember loved ones who have passed away.
People may choose to have the names of decreased loved ones read out; to have their names entered in a book of remembrance and to light a candle in their memory. Whether a bereavement is recent or was some time in the past, we hope that this service will provide an opportunity to pray; to bring grief before God and to receive His comfort.
