Our Remembrance Sunday commemorations began at the newly refurbished war memorial in Old Jamaica Rd.
The cadets paraded. St James clergy led the brief service.
The Mayor of Southwark laid the first wreath followed by the Councillors from Riverside Ward, Sir Simon Hughes, Hilda (representing the people of St James), together with military and other community representatives.
Remembrance Sunday services followed in both St James's and St Anne's. In St James we laid wreaths at the Boer War Memorial and at the memorial to the members of the Men's Bible Class who died in WW1 (this last wreath being laid by a member of the current men's bible study group).
Once again it was good to pause and remember.
