Let us give thanks for those who, in the day of decision, ventured their all for the liberty that we now enjoy.
May we strive to maintain freedom in our nation, in Europe and in the world, and to safeguard the peace which was won at such cost.
Today, I will be joining the Mayor of High Wycombe, Cllr Chaudhary Allah Ditta, at the Remembrance Day parade and service at All Saints, where I will lead prayers. In the evening, I will be joining a Bible study.
On 11 November, I joined teachers and pupils from Crown House School in a remembrance ceremony at the war memorial on the Rye.
They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old;
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them.
