After spending the night aboard the Canadian frigate HMCS Montreal in the Captain’s quarters, Prince William and Kate Middleton began their fourth day touring Canada at a prayer service with the 200 sailors aboard the ship.

The 45-minute service included prayers for the Queen, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, the Commonwealth and armed forces. The couple also sang along in French to the hymn “Je Louerai L’Eternel (Praise, I Will Praise You Lord).”

Kate wore a blue Erdem Moralioglu dress–the same Canadian-born, British designer who made the dress she wore for her arrival on Thursday– along with a pair of nude pumps.

After the ceremony, the couple made their way across town to visit Maison Dauphine, a local organization for at-risk youth. William and Kate listened to stories, looked at artwork and spent time with the members. Marie-Pier, 23,  one of the members, told reporters:

“They have an aura. There’s a purple light around them. It puts you at ease.”

“They made us feel [that we are] important; forget about everything else going on around.”

She added:

“The kids were all sitting at a table, and they were a little intimidated,” Marie-Pier says. “[William] told them at one point, ‘Don’t ever let people put you down – because a prince looks up to you.’ “

I love that William and Kate are taking time to visit the less fortunate. It speaks volumes of them both.
