We're recruiting singers right now!

Killermont Church Choir (Bearsden, Glasgow, Scotland) is in good heart and good voice, but we're always ready to welcome new singers.

See if you're anyone like this:-

• You used to sing in a choir at school
• You used to sing in a choir when you lived somewhere else
• You always enjoyed singing but have never been in a choir
• You enjoy music and fancy a new leisure activity
• ......................................... (fill in your own situation!)

Why not come and give it a try when we meet up again at the end of August? We rehearse on Thursday evenings at church, at 7.30 pm. We always have a tea-break - social networking is very important to us!

The choir is a family - but we're happy to welcome newcomers. Go on - you'll love it!

Sunday 25th June 2006

Killermont is in Summer Sunday mode now. There's a short, informal family service at 9 am, and a "conventional" service at 10.15 am.

Before the 10.15 am service, you heard:- "Oh, my beloved father" and "Nessun dorma" (both by Puccini); during the offering I played "I'll walk with God", from The Student Prince by Brodszky; and we finished with "Crown Imperial", by Walton.


To the kind people who joined us in praying for our friends' daughter over very many months, I am sorry to have to relate that sadly all the doctors' best efforts were not able to win the struggle with cancer. We celebrated her funeral a week ago - it was a very positive celebration of a life filled with enthusiasm, happiness and - yes - a zest for life itself.
The huge smiley balloons in Marie Curie colours were chosen by our friends' daughter as a signal that this was a service to be celebrated. Our thoughts are with the family and many friends coming to terms with their untimely loss.

The family has suggested that charitable donations might also be given to the Ileostomy Association, who offered much support, gratefully appreciated. http://www.the-ia.org.uk

While you say a prayer, you might like to take a cyber-walk through these churchyard gardens, with absolutely fabulous spring flowers: http://www.mooseyscountrygarden.com/english-gardens/churchyard-garden-spring-daffodils.html (The church is St Giles', in London.)
