Come Sing! At the Little Church in the Wildwood
2024-07-28 19:00 - 20:00, 2024-08-04 19:00 - 20:00 (America/New_York) | NC
Every summer since 1945, except for the two years of Covid 19, the Little Church in the Wildwood holds a hymn sing.
The Little Church has no denominational affiliation nor membership requirement. All are welcome. The service is held every Sunday from Memorial Day through Labor Day. An old dinner bell rings at 6:50 p.m. to call worshippers in. The service starts promptly at 7:00 p.m. and ends at 8:00 p.m.
The hymns are those from the 1938 Cokesbury Hymnal. Each guest gets to select their favorite hymn, if they have one, for the service. At the conclusion we dismiss with “How Great Thou Art.”
