The Brass Band
During 2012 the members of the brass band have again shown their commitment and continued to attend practices fairly regularly. We started off with 6 members, but in the middle of the year Werner Schütz left us to spend some time working in England.
During the year we participated in the following events: Easter festival, 100th Jubilee celebration of the Pietermaritzburg congregation and the 50th/100th Jubilee celebration of the St Paul’s and Durban congregations. Two of our members participated in the bi-annual Brass band festival which was held in Kroondal (near Rustenburg). This is always a very special weekend and it was once again enjoyed by all who attended. At the end of the year we entertained the APN residents on one Sunday afternoon and also played in four services, including the Christmas Eve service - for the first time in many years.
We are looking forward to the fellowship and music that we enjoy together, and we hope that we will again be able to participate in some services and celebrations throughout the year. Of course, we always hope that some new members will join us so that our little group gets bigger and the music becomes better.
