Bells
If you have come to worship here on a Sunday morning recently you are very likely to have heard our 6 bells ringing out in welcome.
We have an enthusiastic team of bell-ringers who ring regularly before our Services and also on special occasions. They have been encouraging young people to learn how to ring and training is offered to new recruits of any age. If you are interested in learning more, then contact Caroline Stewart on 07969 910299
Organ and choirs.
We no longer have a resident organist although we do arrange visiting organists for special services and of course for weddings and funerals. However, we have a new and very effective digital church music system to accompany our singing. We previously had an excellent church choir, which, for a variety of reasons no longer exists, but we are able to assemble several of its former members to lead our singing on special occasions. When a larger choir is needed, e.g. to sing at a wedding, the Woodfield Team Singers offer their services.
Community Choir
We like our church to be used and so we are pleased to provide space for rehearsals for a Community Choir, formed in 2023. Very ably and professionally led by Aimee Harrison, who lives in the village, this has proved to be a great success, and is much enjoyed by the participants. The Choir performed a few of its songs to great acclaim at our Open Gardens’ Day at the end of August and is currently planning a Christmas Concert. A few church members have joined the choir and in reciprocal manner, some of the members of the choir will augment our own choir on special occasions e.g. our annual Carol Service.
There is no voice test to join the choir – any adult is eligible! If you would be interested in finding our more, then contact Aimee at aimeemusic@live.co.uk.
