Pimms & Hymns

Hymns & Pimms, St. Andrew's Edburton

St Andrew’s Edburton — 6:00pm Sunday 28th September

This is our annual Songs of Praise service. We will be singing some of our favourite hymns, accompanied by a glass of Pimms, and hoping that they will be able to hear us at the Dyke! Last year we used our new hymn books for the first time. Several of these have been sponsored — but there are still a few left if you would like to dedicate one — maybe in memory of a loved one or remembering a wedding or christening. Please let the PCC know if you would like to do so.
