Pan Am Flight 103 Memorial Cairn

On December 21 at 1:30PM the Pender UMC Choir traditionally sings for the Pan Am Flight 103 (Lockerbie) Memorial Service at Arlington National Cemetery.  Today, the choir sang at the 8:15 service at Pender so that we could get to Arlington Cemetery in a timely fashion.

One of the songs we  traditionally sing at this service – “Under His Wings” – was composed in memory of the victims.  It can be heard in the videos below.

Last year was the 25th anniversary of the Pan Am Flight 103 bombing.
