Back in mid August, we mourned the passing of Bishop Timothy Dudley-Smith, one of the truly great modern hymn writers in the Anglican tradition. At the time, one comment was “We give thanks for all that he contributed to the worship of the church through his hymn writing, and his ministry”.

While on her September break, one of our readers, Jean Melrose, was inspired to put together a wonderful service that includes some of his very best known hymns—yes, including Tell out my soul—video clips of him speaking, some really good readings, and all in a really prayerful framework.

Don’t miss this service—put it in your diary now. It will be at St Aidan’s so that we can see and hear the clips well, but in a pretty recognisable Anglican traditional format!!
