“Chelmsford has always been my hometown and holds numerous happy memories. My joy of singing goes back many years to the Chelmsford Cathedral School, where I attended as a young child. After my children had grown up, I joined a local choir that was formed to support the visit to England in 1984, of Billy Graham the American Christian Evangelist. After he returned to America the choir kept together for the next 24 years, and became known as the Chelmsford Mission Choir. Sadly it ceased when our choir leader retired. In 2008 along with other Mission Choir members, I joined the newly formed Chelmsford Gospel Community Choir. It was different, exciting and the fellowship we share is something I value greatly.”
