Countdown to Wesley Hymn Festival (4 days)

Hi All,

I am so excited about the Wesley Hymn Festival. We have several organist lined up along with a mass choir, a handbell choir, and of course you. It is not too late to pass the word to everyone.

The festival starts at 4:00 PM at Epworth United Church, 56 S. Division, Kingsville.

If you and your choir members want to be a part of the mass choir – rehearsal will begin at 2:45. I can email you the anthem in advance – let me know Dale Burkhlder (gangalf ‘@’ live.com)

See you in 4 days.

A week until the Wesley Hymn Festival

A reminder that the Wesley Hymn Festival is about a week away.
I need to hear from you if your choir will be participating.

If you are willing to be an organist for the festival (playing a few hymns to accompany the singing). If you have an arrangement of a Wesley hymn or a free verse arrangement of a Wesley hymn that would be a bonus.

You can contact me – Dale Burkholder (gangalf@live.com) to indicate your interest
