Limehouse PC is very happy to welcome 841 Sound to our sanctuary for worship today.  The group consists of Debi Sproule, Kim Taylor, Anne Menzie and Pam Stuart, who have been ringing together since 2012; however, each of them have rung with other bell choirs in the past, which has given them a great depth of experience and a deep love of the instruments involved.  The name, 841 Sound is drawn from 8 hands, 4 musicians, 1 sound, and we are blessed to have them ringing out for us this morning as we joyfully celebrate 157 years of serving the Limehouse community! Lunch will be served in the church basement following worship. Please join us!
