BELLS
OF PEACE
On
11 Nov, at the going down of the sun,
communities
across Canada will mark the 100th anniversary
of
the end of the first World War with the ringing of 100 bells.
The
bells will emulate the moment in 1918 when
church
bells across Europe tolled as 4
years of war
had
come to an end.
At sunset, 5:00 pm in Nova Scotia,
when
you hear the bells toll, take a moment to remember
all
those who served and sacrificed.
We Will
Remember Them.
