Uniformed officers and students from throughout Grand Bahama lined the streets, Sunday, for the Remembrance Day March to pay homage to fallen war veterans.
The procession culminated at Mary Star of the Sea Catholic Church, where members of the community gathered for what was the 62nd Annual Remembrance Day Church Service.
Prayers were lifted up for national restoration, Grand Bahama, veterans, their families, and the youth of the nation.
While delivering the homily, Reverend Elkanah Brian Seymour, Pastor at St. Paul’s Methodist Church, urged those gathered to make good memories and give God thanks.
He also reminded the congregation that the purpose of all gathered was to give thanks for those who have sacrificed their lives.
During the wreath laying ceremony, Minister for Grand Bahama, the Hon. Ginger Moxey laid a wreath on behalf of the government; Justice Indira Francis on behalf of the Judiciary; Senator James Turner on behalf of the Senate; Assistant Commissioner of Police Shanta Knowles for the Royal Bahamas Police Force; Commander Valentino Rolle for the Royal Bahamas Defence Force; and Stephanie Barr for the Bahamas Red Cross Grand Bahama Centre.
