A Service of Remembrance, Prayer and Resurrection – September 11

Each September 11, we gathered at the cross in the First Presbyterian Church cemetery for a service of remembrance, prayer and resurrection as we commemorated the 20th anniversary of the deadliest terrorist attack in world history. This was a solemn time for reflection, prayer, scripture reading, and song as we remembered the 2,977 lives tragically taken from this world and the 20-year war that ensued.
 
For those who were unable to attend, this prayer guide provided prayers and scripture readings to coincide with the times the planes struck the World Trade Center towers, Pentagon, and field in Shanksville, Pennsylvania.
