WWBOX: The Wee Music Box

A monthly workshop course on music – its purpose and potential, how to use it imaginatively in congregations and much more.

Led by John L. Bell, Jane Bentley & Carol McArthur.

The course is open to all who are interested in the potential of music in the church – its importance in worship, pastoral work, and spirituality. Each evening is self-contained, so that participants may come for the whole course or specific evenings.

Tonight:

• Mon 5th March: Music, Mind and Memory
  The amazing ways in which music works when other communication fails.

Forthcoming:

• Mon 2nd April: Please note we have moved the event previously scheduled for this date, to the following Monday, the 9th (see below).
• Mon 9th April: Songs of Separation
  The importance of lament when life does not bring what we expect.
• Mon 7th May: The Global Connection
  Singable songs from every continent.

(Note: while most events are on the first Monday of the month, in January, the 8th is the second Monday, as is April 9th)
