We chose a lighthouse as our logo because we are a group whose lives have been illuminated by the light of the gospel, collectively we are a beacon for the gospel, and a lighthouse is a symbol of calm water and safe harbour after a dangerous journey, and this is what Jesus offers. These reasons are neatly captured in a catchy song by Rend Collective: My Lighthouse. Take it away Rend Collective...
Introducing…our singing group
A small group of singers and musicians meet once or twice a month at Newbury to just enjoy singing and prepare the odd performance piece. Our latest endeavour was to sing ‘God so loved the world’ from Stainer’s Crucifixion at the Easter Service. We didn’t record it, but here’s a well-performed version for you (by Walled Lake Western High School):
I’d like to say our performance matched this one…
The group has a range of abilities from very talented leaders and singers, to, well, others (and I include myself in the ‘other’ category). But we are drawn together by a love of God and a love of music!
If you like to sing religious music (from Handel to gospel) and you live locally to our hall, then please do contact us to find out more and perhaps come along and join us?
