How do you like your hymns? Traditional, with soaring descants, modern worship songs, Iona style....

We all have different tastes, but we can all choose our hymns. It's very easy. We work in small groups, a month at a time, together. We use the readings for each Sunday to help us see a theme or themes for that day.

An opening hymn calls us to worship: it might be cheering or welcoming. The hymn before the Gospel is usually shorter and may call upon the Holy Spirit to help us hear God's word. The hymn while the offering is collected and the altar laid might reflect on the readings or upon offering or communion. A post communion hymn might be gentle, personal and reflective. Our final hymn sends us out to share God's work and do his work.

A hymn has so much more meaning when it's the one you chose! Come and join in.
