ARMISTICE DAY or REMEMBRANCE DAY (traditionally the 11th day of the 11 month in commemoration of the official cessation of hostilities in World War One) is a day when people around the world pause for a moment to remember those who have fallen in armed conflict.
In South Africa, the City of Cape Town annually hosts a large public parade and multi-faith service to commemorate those people of all nationalities who have paid the supreme sacrifice. This is not only members of armed forces, but also for those civilians who have lost their lives in times of war and insurrection.

The Western Cape Commandery of the Grand Bailiwick of South Africa recently held a Vigil and Investiture Service at St Michaels and All Saints, Observatory, Cape Town.
The theme of the sermon during the Friday evening’s Vigil lay in our Southern Hemisphere Spring and its promise of new birth, growth and renewal. This was of particular importance to the six new Associates who were to be installed at the next day’s Investiture Service as full Members and to those members being promoted to the rank of Officer of the Order.
