Music! Music! Music!

Between now and Christmas the music group will be very busy and we would welcome the help of the congregation. On 27th Sept we celebrate the Harvest Festival and 10th Oct is the Church Anniversary. The choir will be involved in both of these services and we would welcome any new singers to our weekday practices on Thurs 23rd Sept. and Thurs 7th Oct. We have been invited to sing Carols in the town centre just before Christmas to raise funds for Teesside Hospice. This Christmas Eve the choir will be augmented at the Carol Service by some of the members of the Junior Choir which we had here 25 years ago! I have been in touch with many of those singers but I may have missed some people. If you know of anyone who has not had an invitation please let Beryl 714224 know.
