Thank you for joining us!
This evensong will contain some very straightforward music and there should be plenty of time to rehearse everything on the day without too much of a rush. It's the summer holidays, so it will likely be a small group of us - with a modest congregation - but it should be good fun. There will be plenty of refreshment breaks and the service itself will last around 40 minutes. Music and recordings can be sent electronically in advance and hard copies will be available on the day. There's no pressure to - but you are very welcome to attend choir rehearsals on Friday 2nd of August and Friday 9th of August at 7.15pm where we will practising for this and other services.
