Psalms roar at new event

Does your church neglect the psalms? Or has saying or singing them become a bit by rote? If that’s the case, you may need a ‘Psalm Roar’.

About 100 people attended one such event – Psalm Roar 2023 – organised by church minister Tim Vasby-Burnie and held at St George’s Church, Shrewsbury recently.

Vasby-Burnie explains that a ‘Psalm Roar’ is ‘a gathering in which we sing a variety of psalms and in a variety of styles. We aim for singing that is enthusiastic, robust, loud and encouraging! Some psalms will use familiar tunes so we can all sing without any practice.’
