  • Lest We Forget / Abide with me...November Remembrances

    November has always been a month of remembrances for me personally and of course nationally we remember those who have fallen in war time conflicts. Thus came on this video which touched me and thus sharing. 
     
     
     
    A tribute to the fallen. Slideshow of pictures with the Hymn, Abide with me and the last Post as soundtrack.
     
    The hymn Abide with Me is one that is sung at the end of the day through many camping experiences for my family at Pioneer Ranch Camp. It is also one I would like at the memorial service for my daughter on Thursday.
     
    Abide with me; fast falls the eventide;  	
    the darkness deepens; Lord, with me abide.
    When other helpers fail and comforts flee,
    Help of the helpless, O abide with me.

  • I'm so sorry to read of the loss of your daughter (I missed your earlier post).  Abide with Me is a perfect tribute to her. 

  • They made the sacrifice of their life for us and deserve our gratefulness . They  cannot be forgotten

  • Great song.  I love how it's used here, and I can't think of anything better for a Memorial tribute.  :Huggerz:

    Lord, please DO abide with this sister as she lifts her babe to you in thanks for the good times, in surrender for the things she couldn't do, and with gratitude for the things You brought to her through this child.  Amen.

About me...

An Albertan & Canadian, definitely a northern gal. Social worker by profession, this blog has included some of my work over 10 years in Nunavut from 2002 on. Passionate about slowing down & taking time to appreciate the beauty of the outdoors or kindness in relationships as gifts & blessings; injustices against children in situations beyond their control; my faith; Nature, experiencing the outdoors whether cycling, walking. x-c skiing or gardening, my dogs, capturing on film God's beauty, experiencing life intensely & with the senses, richness of late afternoon light, wind in my hair cycling with my dog on a beach road, couching inches from an arctic flower or alpine lichen to capture it with my camera, insight of a student's new learning, a good conversation over a coffee.
