Sunday Worship

A Service for VE Day

St Peter’s, Church Langton

Sunday 11th May, 10:30am

This week sees the 80th anniversary of the end of World War II in Europe.

Here in the UK, there have been services of thanksgiving, parties and more celebrations through the week.

On the Anniversary itself, King Charles, along with his family, attended a special service at Westminster Abbey and later a unique concert where he read from the diary of his late mother, Queen Elizabeth who described the happy events of the day, appearing on the balcony at Buckingham Palace and later, slipping out with her sister, Princess Margaret to join the crowds below – cheering with them for another appearance by her mother and father.

She recalled doing the conga through the door of the Palace and finally going to bed at 3am!

It is easy to forget that for everyone alive back then, there was no end date in sight, no idea of the outcome when the war began in 1939.

Six long years of loss, destruction, hardship and uncertainty came to a close for Europe on 5th May 1945, but in the Far East the fighting continued.

Nonetheless, the victory in Europe was immense; the joy in the country literally rang out. Bells were silent during the war but they rang on that day.

Our worship on Sunday will reflect all the emotions from back then and precious peace we have just now.

Join us at 10:30 to give thanks for the Victory in Europe, the people who served and lost their lives and the remaining generation who live with us still today. They are very much loved and most precious!
