More than 600 candles were placed by the graves of fallen Polish and Commonwealth Servicemen at the annual All Souls’ Day ceremony of Homage and Remembrance at Newark Cemetery. Candles had been lit in front of so many gravestones of second world war victims at the Commonwealth War Graves section of the cemetery.
They are often placed on individual graves of the 400 Polish airmen and paratroopers. This year, candles were also placed by the headstones of 90 soldiers from Commonwealth nations, who died as a result of the conflict. Candles were placed, too, on the headstones of some of the 41 civilians who died in the Luftwaffe bombing raid on the Ransome and Marles ball-bearing factory in Newark 1941, as well as at the graves of first world war casualties.
The service, organised by Newark Town Council on behalf of the Polish Air Force Association, is based around the memorial cross dedicated to Polish airmen. It was installed in 1941 at the former grave of Polish wartime leader General Wladyslaw Sikorski.
He was buried in Newark following his death in a plane crash off Gibraltar in 1943. General Sikorski’s body was repatriated to his homeland on 14th September 1993.
A procession of guests carrying standards marched from the cemetery gates at London Road on Sunday to the war graves for a service led by the Polish Air Force Memorial Committee.The ceremony included speeches by the chairman of the Polish Air Force Memorial Committee, Mr Richard Kornicki, and the Mayor of Newark.

Nearly 400 hundred Polish Airmen from the 2nd World War lie buried in the war graves cemetery at Newark, Nottinghamshire, England. A memorial Cross with the words - For Freedom - Remembers their Sacrifice.
“Many that rest here will have known extreme heartache before their deaths. It’s fitting they should have a peaceful resting place.
“The candles signify that our prayers are with them all.”
Father Krzysztof Kawczynski said prayers for fallen airmen and paratroopers before the role of honour was read. The Last Post was played ahead of a one minute's silence.
Wreaths were laid at General Sikorski’s former grave.
Among dignitaries at the ceremony were representatives of the Polish ambassador and Polish Consular Services will Remember them at All Souls' Day which will be held on Sunday 28th October 2018 at 3pm.

A special plot was set aside in Newark Cemetery for R.A.F. burials and this is now the war graves plot, where all but ten of the 90 Commonwealth and all of the 397 Polish burials were made. The cemetery also contains 49 scattered burials of the First World War.

Nearer My God To Thee Hymn
Nearer, my God, to Thee, nearer to Thee!
E’en though it be a cross that raiseth me,
Still all my song shall be, nearer, my God, to Thee.
Nearer, my God, to Thee,
Nearer to Thee!
Though like the wanderer, the sun gone down,
Darkness be over me, my rest a stone.
Yet in my dreams I’d be nearer, my God to Thee.
There let the way appear, steps unto Heav’n;
All that Thou sendest me, in mercy given;
Angels to beckon me nearer, my God, to Thee.
Then, with my waking thoughts bright with Thy praise,
Out of my stony griefs Bethel I’ll raise;
So by my woes to be nearer, my God, to Thee.
Or, if on joyful wing cleaving the sky,
Sun, moon, and stars forgot, upward I’ll fly,
Still all my song shall be, nearer, my God, to Thee.
There in my Father’s home, safe and at rest,
There in my Savior’s love, perfectly blest;
Age after age to be, nearer my God to Thee.

Острог: в тіні історії | Ostroh: in the shadow of history
Острог: в тіні історії - це гранично новий погляд на сучасний стан давнього міста, яке пережило розквіт, занепад і вже другий десяток років постає з попелу. Фільм спробує показати закулісся урбаністичних процесів, їх складність та неоднозначність. Розповісти про те, чого не помітиш на старих вулицях неозброєним оком, однак варте того, щоб бути почутим.
-
Ostrog: w cieniu historii - to zupełnie nowe spojrzenie na dzisiejszy stan starożytnego miasta, które przeszło kwitnienie, rozpadło się i pojawiło się z popiołów przez drugą dekadę. Film postara się pokazać za kulisami procesów miejskich, ich złożoności i niejednoznaczności. Powiedz nam, czego nie zauważasz na starych ulicach gołym okiem, ale warto je usłyszeć.

Grand Order of Saint Stanislas Newark-On-Trent Cemetery
We did Remember them, A Service Of Remembrance For Poland's War Heroes. The Order Of Saint Stanislas and The Grand Priory of Great Britain Held A Memorial Service Of Remembrance To Former Poland's Heroes. At Newark-on-Trent Cemetery
H.E. Dame Mervyn Redding. A service of remembrance for Poland's war heroes was held at Newark Cemetery Chapel Interpretation Centre on Sunday afternoon 3pm on 6th May 2012.
About the Order of Saint Stanislas
After many years of devoting himself to God, in 1071, Stanislas, who was from the Turzyana clan, was appointed Bishop of Krakow. At the time there was much discontent amongst the populace because of the constant wars of King Boleslaw II of Poland and Bishop Stanislas became a focal point of vocal opposition. In 1079 the king ordered the Bishop to be seized and put to death for his activities. In 1253 Stanislas was proclaimed a Saint and a Patron of Poland for his defence of human rights and Christian teachings.
On the 8th of May, 1765, the Royal Order of St Stanislas was established by King August Poniatowski, Stanislas II of Poland, with the heraldic motto Praemiando incitat (by awarding encourage). After the third and last partition of the old Polish Commonwealth between Russia, Austria and Prussia in 1795 the Order fell into abeyance and remained without a Grand Master until 1809.
After the creation of the Duchy of Warsaw, the Elector and then King Frederick Augustus I of Saxony became Duke of Warsaw on 7th of July, 1807. In 1809 he became the 2nd Grand Master of the Order of St Stanislas and there was a revival of the Order.
the beginning of the 20th century the Order of St Stanislas formed the largest Order in Russia. Chevaliers fees were put at the disposal of the Chapter and directed to good works, i.e. the care of wounded soldiers, the maintenance of students in schools and institutions, and other charities
After the abdication of the 7th Grand Master, Tsar Nicholas .II the Council of Peoples Deputies decreed on the 29th December, 1917, that all previously given Orders and titles be abolished. When the new Polish state was created after World War I a number of Orders were created or re-established. However the Order of St Stanislas was not one of them. Its place was taken by the new Order of Polonia Restituta with the President of the Polish Republic automatically becoming a Chevalier 1st class and Grand Master.
At the beginning of World War II the Government of the Polish Republic (in exile) was formed in London and continued there until the restitution of democracy in Poland in 1990.
During the period of exile Juliusz Nowina-Sokolnicki became President on 6th April, 1972. On the 9th June, 1979, to commemorate the 900th anniversary of the martyrdom of St Stanislas he decreed the re-establishment of the Order of St Stanislas. The Statutes of the Order were approved on 11th November, 1984, with stated goals to reward people for services in the protection of Faith and human rights for the good of the Polish people and State. Juliusz Nowina-Sokolnicki took the position of 8th Grand Master and created the Grand Magistry of Chevaliers of the Order of St Stanislas. With the restitution of democracy in Poland, Nowina-Sokolnicki extracted the Order of St Stanislas from the list of state decorations of the Polish Government and on the 15th September, 1990, announced its independence and sovereignty as an international Order devoted to the ideal of brotherhood of humanity irrespective of religion or race. The Order developed wide ranging charitable activities and created a system of Grand Priories, Priories and Commanderies in 33 countries around the world. On the 16th May, 2004, a number of Grand Priors from various Countries met in Kiev, Ukraine, and decided to split from Nowina-Sokolnicki's Order and form the International Order of St Stanislas. We do not claim to be the authenticate original Order, only that we follow their basic principles and precepts. We recognise that there are several Orders of St. Stanislas and are happy to welcome members of any of them to our functions and acknowledge that each in their own way do good worksAlthough originally a Christian Order membership is now open to any male or female over the age of 21, (18 by agreement of the Grand Prior), who profess a belief in a Supreme Being and is a believer in the fundamental principles of chivalry..

The Friends of Newark Cemetery was set up in December 2005.Over time has played an active part in assisting the Town Council with practical tasks such as litter collection, painting benches, planting spring bulbs and organising open days. In July 2008 FoNC opened a Friends Support Centre at the Cemetery on 2 afternoons each week when bereavement and other advice and information are available to visitors to the Cemetery. On 28th April 2007 , Richard Todd OBE, officially unveiled the Memorial to the Fallen in Cemetery on London Road. Anyone is welcome to become a Friend of Newark Cemetery please contact the Environmental Services Team on 01636 684803 for Membership details.

The Air Bridge memorial service takes place each year on the 4th Sunday in September at 2pm leaving from the Main Gate on London Road, Newark to the Memorial up the Main Drive near the Commonwealth and Polish war grave near by at Newark Cemetery. They remembers the 250 airmen who lost their lives during the Air Bridge operations, which helped the Warsaw uprising in 1944. Over 400 Polish Airmen and service men were killed during the 2nd World War and are buried in Newark Cemetery. We must not forget the polish Airman and the Commonwealth they fought for freedom against the enemy and didn't flinch. They fought to the end and then carried on the fight, we should be grateful. We certainly owe them a great deal of credit that they so rightly deserve.

Newark Cemetery at Airbridge Remembers
I believe wholeheartedly in being actively involved with every issue of importance to all Newark people. Newark has had close links with Poland and the local Polish community, both here and in Nottingham for many years. Many Poles came to England to help with the war effort and many chose to stay on and make this country their home. Newarks place in Polands heart was cemented when the remains of Polands war time leader, General Wladyslaw Sikorski were entrusted to the town until his return to Krakow in 1993. Every person in the United Kingdom who values their freedom should
be grateful.
