Hymn Festival

2012 Community Hymn Festival will be held:  Sunday, May 20, 2012, 7:30 PM

“PSALMS, HYMNS, and SPIRITUAL SONGS THROUGH THE AGES”
West Side Presbyterian Church, 6 S. Monroe St. Ridgewood, NJ
Each year the West Side Presbyterian Church hosts the Community Hymn Festival, sponsored by the American Guild of Organists (AGO) to support the John R. Rodland Scholarship Fund.

The 2011 Hymn Fesitval at Westside Church in Ridgewood was a huge success.  An 80 voice choir with brass, handbells, organ and strings brought the hymns and anthems to new plateaus!  Ben Blasingame played brilliantly.  Thank you to all those who participated.
