On Sunday there will be a sheet to sign so that we can order the books in time for December.
Buying the books in bulk will result in significant discounts so please consider also buying for friends and family as a meaningful gift this year.
The books are £7 each but if we order multiple copies the price reduces (£5 each for 10) (£4 each for 25) (£2 each for 50) (£1 each for 100)
You can read a sample here Sing In Exhultation
From the cover of the book:
Carol singing is as indispensible to the festive season as decking the halls and swapping gifts. Each daily devotional unpacks a verse from a well-known carol, uncovering riches in the familiar words we love to sing. This book will help you tune your heart (and mind) to the melody (and mystery) of the gospel.
