The Armistice of 1918 ended the horrendous slaughter of World War I, called THE WAR TO END ALL WARS. When the Armistice was signed, exuberant JOY broke out around the world. For many years bells rang 11 times at that 11th hour of the 11th day on the 11th month. Then it slowly faded away, especially in the U.S. Now we ring bells again, many bells, many places, 11 times, at that sacred moment. With a moment of silence, we remember the soldiers and civilians killed in warfare in every country, and we commit to work and pray for peace until this assault on the Will of the Creator of us all, is finally over. Plan to stay after worship this Sunday to hear the bell rung 11 times in recognition of this day.
A Congregational Meeting is called for the purpose of approving the 2024 Slate of Officers. The meeting will take place on Sunday, November 19th, immediately following worship.
