Faith plays a critical part in many people's lives - inspring them, challenging them, helping that make it through tough times.

We are Quakers and our faith has been central to our own lives and our work.

Nonetheless we have not done a concert focusing spoecifically on songs of faith for many years. There are hundreds of songs of faith sprinkled through our songbooks. This concert provided an opportunityu for us to sing and teach and lead you in some of these songs that continue to light our lives.

The concert took place on Saturday, December 11, 2021. It was recorded. As soon as we have had a chance to edit the recording, it will be posted on our YouTube channel -https://www.youtube.com/c/riseupandsing. When that happens, we will post a link to the concert recording at the top of this page.
