Hymnal supplement – thank you for your response!

Revd Dr Peter Thompson, Secretary, Hymnal Sub–Committee, warmly thanks all those who have suggested hymns for inclusion in the supplement to the hymnal…

On behalf of the Hymnal Sub–Committee of the LAC may I thank all those who have responded to our request for suggestions of items to be included in a supplement to the Hymnal.

We have been overwhelmed by the number of submissions received and have tried to thank each individual personally, but this has become increasingly difficult as the volume of correspondence has increased. The number of suggested items has reached almost 1,500, which is ten times the number suggested for the Supplement. The committee is in the process of assessing these, and intends to make a suggested list available to Synod members this year.

We are delighted to have received submissions from every county on the island, representing every diocese, and are consious that the need for a supplement has been so positively expressed, and the work of the committee encouraged and welcomed.
