2004 was a special year for St. Mary's choir in which a number of members saw 'anniversaries' of their time at St Mary's. At St Mary's we are very fortunate to have such a committed group of choristers and last year Yvonne Hickman completed 40 years as a choir member, Eleanor Waldock and Paul Collis completed 30 years and Pam Sayers Jan Philips and Jo Banks, 20 years. It is also 20 years since I agreed to stand in as Organist and Choir Director until a 'proper organist' could be found!

We are delighted to have some new choir members who joined just before Christmas - Beth, Gemma and William - and it was lovely to have them in the Carol Service.

If you are interested in joining the choir, or have a child who might be interested in joining a junior choir to help out at the new family service on the first Sunday of the month, please contact Beverley Harlow on 01438 225365.

Sometimes the stress of singing in the choir can get too much!
