Also today at precisely 11 AM, CUMC participated in “The Bells of Peace” with other organizations and churches around around the world. Our bell choir tolled 21 times to mark the 100th anniversary of the beginning of the armistice that ended World War 1. Also known as “The Great War,” WWI lasted from July 28, 1914 to November 11, 1918. More than 17 million people died during the war, including 10 million military dead and 7 million civilians. The total number of people dead, wounded, or missing is more than 37 million. (This is at our second service — Contemporary.)
