The Calendar ~

Remembrance Day

The flowers left thick at nightfall in the wood

This Eastertide call into mind the men,

Now far from home, who, with their sweethearts, should

Have gathered them and will do never again.

Edward Thomas In Memoriam (Easter, 1915)

November 11th. Martinmas. For St Martin, warrior saint and patron of

France, the right-hand figure in the central panel of our memorial window.

November 11th. Armistice Day 1918. Now Remembrance Day. The living

memories of the Great War are gone and we are left with memorials and

what was written, our senses shaped by the poetry of the War more than

by any other since the fall of Troy. In 1914, the war was gilded with

expectation of rapid victory, of noble death and sacrifice, and the glory of

the Empire. Rupert Brooke anticipated honourable death: “There shall be/

In that rich earth a richer dust concealed.” Six of the ten men

commemorated by the window were killed before June 1915, all in the

field. The bitter reality of the slaughter came into focus at the Somme.

Lt. Wilfred Owen, M.C., remembered gassing: “In all my dreams, before

my helpless sight,/He plunges at me, guttering, choking, drowning.”

Owen and the other war poets gave us the truth from the trenches, of

carnage today unimaginable, of irresponsible horror, of a preferential end.

“It is easy to be dead”, wrote Charles Sorley. Wilfred Owen was killed on

November 4th, 1918, a week before the Armistice. The ceasefire began on

Martinmas when preparations for Christmas used to start. It precedes

Christmas by the same duration as Lent. The first Service of Nine Lessons

and Carols in King’s College Chapel was on Christmas Eve 1918; the stalls

cold, the country in mourning. Husbands, fathers, sons, brothers, and

lovers now gone for ever; and those who did come back, never to be the

same. Owen, again: “My subject is War, and the pity of War. All a poet can

do today is warn.”

Today, as I rode by,/ I saw the brown leaves dropping from their tree

In a still afternoon,/ When no wind whirled them whistling to the sky,

But thickly, silently,/ They fell, like snowflakes wiping out the noon;

And wandered slowly thence/ For thinking of a gallant multitude

Which now all withering lay,/ Slain by no wind of age or pestilence,

But their beauty strewed/ Like snowflakes falling on the Flemish clay.

Margaret Postgate Cole, The Falling Leaves (1915)

The Gospel

The Holy Gospel is written in the tenth chapter of the

Gospel according to Saint John beginning at the 22nd verse.

Glory be to thee, O Lord.

At that time the festival of the Dedication took place in Jerusalem. It was

winter, and Jesus was walking in the temple, in the portico of Solomon. So

the Jews gathered around him and said to him, ‘How long will you keep us

in suspense? If you are the Messiah, tell us plainly.’ Jesus answered, ‘I have

told you, and you do not believe. The works that I do in my Father’s name

testify to me; but you do not believe, because you do not belong to my

sheep. My sheep hear my voice. I know them, and they follow me. I give

them eternal life, and they will never perish. No one will snatch them out

of my hand. What my Father has given me is greater than all else, and no

one can snatch it out of the Father’s hand. The Father and I are one.’

(John 10:22-30)

The Gospel of Christ.

Praise be to thee, O Christ.

A Reading from the Book of Wisdom

But the souls of the righteous are in the hand of God, and no torment will

ever touch them. In the eyes of the foolish they seemed to have died, and

their departure was thought to be a disaster, and their going from us to be

their destruction; but they are at peace. For though in the sight of others

they were punished, their hope is full of immortality. Having been

disciplined a little, they will receive great good, because God tested them

and found them worthy of himself; like gold in the furnace he tried them,

and like a sacrificial burnt-offering he accepted them. In the time of their

visitation they will shine forth, and will run like sparks through the

stubble. They will govern nations and rule over peoples, and the Lord will

reign over them for ever. Those who trust in him will understand truth,

and the faithful will abide with him in love, because grace and mercy are

upon his holy ones, and he watches over his elect. (Wisdom 3:1-9)

Hear what the Spirit is saying to the church.

Thanks be to God.

Let us pray for this country, and especially for Queen Elizabeth, the

Governor General, the Prime Minister, and all in authority: the Lord help

them to serve these people according to his holy will.

Lord, hear our prayer.

Let us pray for our Bishop John and the Diocese of Ottawa, its clergy

and people.

Lord, hear our prayer.

Let us pray for our Canadian Armed Forces and their families and our

veterans who have and still do serve their country. In this place today let us

especially remember the members of the Princess Patricia’s Canadian Light

Infantry, The Governor General’s Foot Guards and those in diplomatic

missions and NGOs.

Lord, hear our prayer.

Let us pray for the sick, those listed in our bulletin and those known to

each of us. Those wounded in battle who are still recovering. For those

known to God alone, the Lord deliver them and keep them in his love.

Lord, hear our prayer.

Let us pray for all who are condemned to exile, prison, harsh treatment, or

hard labour, for the sake of justice and truth: the Lord support them and

keep them steadfast.

Let us remember all who have died. At this time we especially remember

Offertory Hymn: I Vow To Thee My Country Thaxted

I vow to thee, my country, all earthly things above.

Entire and whole and perfect, the service of my love;

The love that asks no question, the love that stands the test,

That lays upon the altar the dearest and the best;

The love that never falters, the love that pays the price,

The love that makes undaunted the final sacrifice.

And there’s another country, I’ve heard of long ago.

Most dear to them that love her, most great to them that know;

We may not count her armies, we may not see her King;

Her fortress is a faithful heart, her pride is suffering;

And soul by soul and silently her shining bounds increase,

And her ways are ways of gentleness, and all her paths are peace.

Blessed be thou, Lord God of Israel, for ever and ever. All that is in the

heaven and the earth is thine. All things come of thee and of thine

own have we given thee.

Motet: In Flanders Fields Alexander Tilley

In Flanders fields the poppies blow between the crosses, row on row, that mark our place,

are the dead; short days ago we lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow, loved and were loved,

and now we lie in Flanders fields.
