The Annual Lunenburg Fishermen's Thanksgiving took place today at 2 o'clock at Central United Church.
The ceremony serves as a time of remembrance and proclaims a note of faith to those who still go to sea.
Mayor Laurence Mawhinney read a Roll of Hounour, including the names of all those fishermen lost in the years ending in zero, beginning in 1900.
Following the service those present proceeded to the waterfront where wreaths will were placed aboard a fishing vessel.
The Clergy will take part in the Prayer of Committal as wreaths were deposited in the ocean in memory of those lost at sea.
In the last century alone, more than 660 fishermen were lost while fishing out of Lunenburg County ports.
