Organised by and featuring Hilary Dennis, the ‘Light in the Darkness’ CD was created throughout the COVID-19 pandemic; musicians from St. Mary Magdalene, Addiscombe recorded music in isolation for the online services in the hope it would provide some light in the darkness. The CD was created to help raise funds to replace and improve the church’s light and music resources.
