Just one of the beautiful tapestries hanging in church as part of an exhibition of creative textile art ‘The Greatest Story Ever Told’. The display will be on show from 6th – 14th September in the Church from 9.30am – 4pm (Sunday 2pm – 4pm). The display is on loan from St Colmanell’s Parish in Ahoghill and any donations received will be divided between their church hall fund and the Mission Aviation Fellowship (MAF). Do take the opportunity to visit this lovely exhibition.
The new choir term started really well with wonderful singing from the trebles and gentlemen, masterfully accompanied by Stephen Hamill. David was delighted to welcome Evan, Fergus, Charlie and Max as cassock boys, and Des Havlin as senior Choral Scholar while he studied at QUB.
Featured is Hector King, one of the four exam candidates who scored really high distinction in his grade 7 ABRSM singing exam last June. The others will feature in future posts.
We look forward to seeing the Chamber Choir next Sunday afternoon for their return.
Our thoughts are with those whose livelihoods and businesses are impacted by the devastating fire at the Bank Buildings, and with the fire crews and other emergency services who have been working through the night to protect the building and the public.
