The Rev. Steve Crowson of the Trinity Episcopal Church leads the congregation in prayer during a Pearl Harbor remembrance service in Lewiston on Monday. A group of veterans assembled to remember the attack on Pearl Harbor in 1941. Pastor Crowson reading from the 23rd Psalm about the Lord as shepherd spoke of the soldiers in uniform as shepherds who are willing to risk their lives to protects us. Jerry Derboghosian, a World War II veteran who served in the ship USS Canberra, said he remembered hearing the news of the attack on the radio prompting him and his friends to enlist in the Navy within days of the event.

Joe Paradis, of Lewiston, a Korean War veteran and a member of the Military Order of the Purple Heart, reads along as the Rev. Steve Crowson reads from the 23rd Psalm during a Pearl Harbor remembrance ceremony at the Trinity Episcopal Church in Lewiston on Monday. A small group gathered to honor those who lost their lives in the attack by Japan and those who are presently serving in the armed forces.
