Organists

We have two regular organists, Hamish and Christine, who play at both the morning (11.00) and evening (6.30) services. From time to time Angus also takes the organist's bench.

The Singing Group

The Singing Group is led by electric-piano, clarinet, and guitar, plus seven singers, and regularly takes part in the morning service (11.00) at Castle Street Church. The repertoire includes several items from Combined Mission Praise, plus some other new Christian songs.

Songs & Hymns

At present we use two main hymn books. These are the Church of Scotland Hymnary (3rd edition), and Mission Praise. We have a Christian Music Copyright Licence and so, from time to time, we also print or project other items of praise.

Prayers

At the morning service there are two main prayers, usually led by the minister. The opening prayer focuses on worship and thanksgiving. The second prayer is for intercession (praying for others). Apart from the minister, various members of the congregation also lead the prayers.
