Feast of St Paul

Nevertheless, there is more than an element of truth in the notion, as we do our best to offer a worthy gesture of thanksgiving through music in church – primarily […]

Throughout this time, and in all capacities, he has been a steadfast source of pastoral care and personal support. In addition to my role within the church, I […]
