A quorum of ringers was assembled for the final Sunday in April and fine performances of Change Ring Prelude (Gramann), Holy Manna (arr. Thompson) and Holy, Holy, Hosanna! (arr. Ryan) were rung.  This was a special Sunday for guests:  Tom and Jessica Flynn (Tom is the founder of the Southminster Ringers) joined us for worship.  We were also fortunate to have a couple of Alumni Ringers home from college!

The ringers shared music with about 70 inmates at the Allegheny County Jail for the fourth year in a row.  This is a rare and special audience each year.  We are very fortunate to be able to continue this tradition.

We were able to ring for some of our best fans at Strabane Trails Village.  Paul and Sue Engle really managed to drum up a crowd for the evening and we loved sharing the holiday joy through our music!  A special thanks to their daughter, Barbara, for helping us with the sleigh bells!!

The Southminster Ringers, Santa and the Train kept children of all ages entertained on this great shopping day at The Village.  Ringing from 11 – 1 was fun and festive!

What a perfect day for ringing!  Mostly cloudy, but no rain.  Not too hot.  Great audiences who asked lots of questions AND the girls did NOT win the tug-of-war this year!!! 

A special thanks to Katelyn, Josh and Samantha for ringing with us.  Our alumni are wonderful!
