Holding a COVOD-Safe Remembrance Weekend
The Parish church of St James, North Cray has long been the focus for our community’s honouring of those who have lost their lives in war and we continue with that proud tradition.
As you will all appreciate, we must do things rather differently during the Pandemic.
Government Regulations have now been announced. There can be no service in the church building. We will hold a short Act of Remembrance at our War Memorial in the churchyard of St James Church, prior to the two minutes silence at 11am, with representatives of the local community, and the Royal British Legion attending.
For everyone’s safety, social distancing will be observed, and we ask you to wear a face-mask even though we are outside. DO NOT attend if you, or any of your household are displaying symptoms or have been asked to isolate. Those in vulnerable groups are advised not to attend the ceremony but to pay their respects at the War Memorial at other times over the weekend.
