The Blue Presbyterian Hymnals were dedicated on March 15, 1992. Click here to see the bulletin from that Sunday.
During the 10:50 worship service this Sunday, October 27, we will retire the blue hymnals with the dignity and respect that is due a âgood and faithful servant.â As a congregation, we will give thanks for the Presbyterian Hymnal that has long enhanced our worship. At the end of the service, we will carry them out to the narthex, placing them on tables according to the name of the donor on each bookplate.
As for what will happen to the blue hymnals in retirement, beginning on October 27, anyone who purchased the bookplates for them is welcome to take possession of the book or books with your name in them. The books that were given by the Memorial Fund will be available to anyone who wants them, on a first-come, first-served basis. If postage is provided, arrangements can be made to mail books. After December 31, the remainder will be listed as available for donation on the Grace Presbytery website.
