For February, our free SONG OF THE MONTH is “There is a green hill”, from MARY MAGDALENE and the ROGER JONES HYMN COLLECTION.   Folks tell me they love this setting and it is used in worship at all times of the year, not just Easter.  Please download it, use it and enjoy! 

Don’t forget, CMM publish many items suitable for the coming Easter season:
  • Many of my MUSICALS have Easter themes, inc. JERUSALEM JOY, SAINTS ALIVE!, FROM PHARAOH TO FREEDOM, PHARISEE, ROCK, TWO SISTERS AND FUNERAL, etc
  • There are Easter/Lenten items in the HYMN COLLECTION, SONG COLLECTION and SEASONS AND REASONS
  • The CHORAL COLLECTION (arrangements for SA, SAB and SATB) has specific LENT AND EASTER section, where you can download for use with your choir, music group, etc.

Please see our latest NEWSLETTER for details of Music Holiday Weeks, SPIRIT WORKS and WORSHIP WORKS days, CMM Choir productions, and other events in our diary.

One final, but very important matter:  There are new Data Protection regulations coming into force in May.  We need to be sure you have given us permission to be on our email/phone database.  You are on our list because you opted to be so, either personally, via our website or at one of our events.  If this is not so, or you no longer wish to be on our mailings, please reply to this message by putting UNSUBSCRIBE in the subject area or by using another option that your system may provide, or reply to office@cmm.org.ukWe really do not want to lose contact with you, but we must abide by the new regulations. 

May Jesus bless you all!
