Evensong on this Sunday. Little brother was upset we forgot his “pretty shoes” while big brother (“I hate church”) surprised me by singing along to the hymns. Hard to find a sweeter sound than a child singing in worship.

Check out these hymns chosen by @danielstroud :
Crown Him With Many Crowns
The God of Abraham Praise
Bread of Heaven 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿
Lo, He Comes With Clouds Descending

Ready for now! 🕯 🕯 🕯 🕯

@fraustroud @danielstroud And such wonderful tunes! I love singing along to the Welsh hymns on the programme Caniadaeth y Cysegr on Radio Cymru, Sundays 7:30-8 am UK time 🎶🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

@danielstroud @janmakarta ooo I bet that’s a lovely program! Ps one of my uncles lives in München ❤️

@fraustroud @danielstroud It is! It's from a different community each week but it's not a church service; the focus is firmly on the hymns, sometimes by a particular composer or poet, or from a particular period or origin. They give you the number in the hymn book 'Caneuon ffydd', so you can sing along and pretend to be fluent (I'm not!) 😁 . 😉

Oh and a merry "Grüss Gott" (greet God, common Bavarian greeting) to your uncle, too! 👋
