The Jacksonville chapter of the American Guild of Organists will host a hymn festival at St. Mark's on 9/28/08 at 7:00 p.m. The festival, titled "Water Music: A Hymn Festival for the River City" will feature improvisations by Andrew Clarke of Riverside Presbyterian Church and congregational hymns accompanied by organists from the local area who are also members of the chapter.

Some of the hymns are "Come, Thou Fount of Every Blessing (Nettleton)," " Eternal Father, Strong to Save (Melita)," " Shall We Gather at the River (Hanson Place) and, "Baptized in Water (Bunessan)". There is no charge, but an offering will be taken for the work of the chapter.

A reception will follow in Hart Hall. Come sing with us! These hymns are old favorites that everyone will enjoy!
