    Drum for Freedom!

    By Chief | July 6, 2007

    John SentamuThe Archbishop of York has called upon all Psalm Drummers to “get out their drums and play to celebrate freedom”. The Archbishop’s call follows the special drumming service held at Bishopthorpe Palace to mark Alan Johnston’s 100th day of captivity (see post dated 4th July) We thank God we have a drumming Archbishop!
