Bishop Peter's initiative Changing Lives, encourages us to explore what it is to 'be church' in the 21st century.  The workshop leaders are keen to work together to nurture and release the God-given talents that exist within every church congregation.

Join St Andrew's Director of Music and Diocesan Music Adviser Alan Cook, and Drama Adviser Elspeth Richards in a combined workshop exploring the themes of Advent using the gifts of music and drama.

In music: Alan will encourage us to experiment with different musical styles, finding power and expression in using music ranging from Gregorian chants to contemporary worship songs.

Through drama: Elspeth Richards will help us to deepen and illuminate our expression of the expectancy of Advent through drama and movement.

The afternoon is for people of all ages to explore ways of encountering the Advent message.  In sharing your gifts you are sure to find fresh approaches for the journey through Advent.
