Remembrance Sunday Service and Ceremony 2015

The annual Tristan Remembrance was held this year at St Joseph's Catholic Church
and conducted by Lay Minister Anne Green and assisted by Lay Minister Dereck Rogers. Afterwards the congregation processed to the flagpole outside the Prince Philip Hall where wreaths were laid and a one minute's silence observed to commemorate those lost in the service of the United Kingdom.The service is always inter-denominational and brings together Anglicans and Roman Catholic congregations and those of other faiths in a joint service. In turn the Anglican St Mary's Church will host the service in alternate years.
