It is with great pleasure we announce that our member and former Executive member, The Rev'd Dr Gordon Giles, will be taking up a new post at Rochester Cathedral as Canon Chancellor.

The Hymn Society is very sorry to have to announce the death, after a brief illness, of its esteemed member, Martin Ellis.
Martin was to many a much-valued friend and respected colleague. He was a member since the early 1970s and served on the Executive Committee on a number of occasions. Only last July, Martin delivered a Sectional at our Canterbury Conference.
As we give thanks for Martin's life, we remember Miriam in our prayers.
A Service of Thanksgiving, celebrating Martin's life in its many facets, will be held on Saturday 22nd February at 11am in Museum Street Methodist Church, Ipswich. ... See MoreSee Less

Another sad message, which has just arrived with us from New Zealand. The much-loved, pioneering and influential hymn writer, Shirley Erena Murray, passed away yesterday.
The following message comes from her family:

Tena koutou.

It is with much sadness that we note the passing of Shirley.

She died on Saturday afternoon New Zealand time, peacefully at Paraparaumu.

Mum had been in declining health for some months, and was accepting of the last passage of her life, so it was both a relief for her and the family, despite the obvious sadness.

Funeral arrangements – Friday 31 January, 11:00 am at Kapiti Uniting Church, 10 Weka Road, Raumati Beach.

We send aroha (love) to all her friends, relatives, and those in the music community.

David, Alastair and Rob ... See MoreSee Less
