Some of the History of the ANZAC's.

Collect

God,
our help in the past and our hope for the future,
we commend to your care those who have died from war,
and those who yet struggle for health and peace.
As the sounds of battle die away,
may the comradeship live on,
and the memories of sacrifice
strengthen our resolve
to strive for peace with justice.
Amen.

Prayer

God our Father,
We remember,
we your people solemnly remember
the wars we have endured;
the killing, the grief, and the courage.
For the evil that was done
we ask your pardon;
for what was great and honourable
we give you the glory.

we give you thanks for those
who laid down their lives in war;
we pray for courage and self-sacrifice like theirs,
so that evil may always be resisted and peace maintained;
through Jesus Christ our Saviour.
Amen.
