Follow round by the ever-open door on your right and sign on in the Visitors' book. Then
make yourself at home. We haven't inscribed Welcome over the doorway, but we hope you will
find it all the same, once you find your way about and get to know us. Moreover, since you won't
find Out of Bounds written up anywhere, you may wander where you like at will."
Then there is the Memorial Chapel, serving a purpose known to all men, but seldom
better expressed, perhaps, than in the invitation For the furtherance of friendship,
Divine and human." Here the Holy Communion is celebrated and daily services held
throughout the week of morning and home-going prayers also.
Such, in brief outline, is the way by which the Dunkerque War Memorial came into
being and how, to-day, it aims to fulfil the high purpose of its foundersthe way of
friendship with all-comers from the seven seas and elsewhere. The concluding words of
Lord Athlone's speech at its inauguration set the seal upon the endeavour of those who
now serve it actively Our part is concluded with to-day's ceremony. We have
established this War Memorial and we leave it to the Missions to Seamen as trustees to
carry on the trust with the same devotion to duty as that shown by those to whom the
Memorial is dedicated."
G. W. Evans, Padre.
