iPray - new CD released

We're very excited to announce that "iPray" is out now. We had a mini-launch for the CD at the "Revive" Bible Week at Ashburnham in East Sussex last week, and the response from children, youth and adults alike was tremendously positive. The songs have been described as "powerful, fresh, original and accessible", and the quality of the arrangements and vocals is probably our best ever. Children will love the CD, but it is definitely not just for children! The songs are genuine all-age songs, and are ideal for Sunday mornings and other times when the whole church worships together.

Children's Spirituality - Scripture Union Training Day

We're taking part in a training day on October 7 at Shoeburyness & Thorpe Bay Baptist Church in Essex. If you are within striking distance, then do check out the details and consider attending. Topics covered on the day include Worship, Prayer and Faith Development. Hope to see you there!

FW Forum - Simon says...

Si from Glasgow sent me an email recently as he had noticed that our online discussion forum had been somewhat quiet recently. He has kindly offered to post regularly to stimulate some activity, and is doing a valiant job, so do cheer him (and me!) up by popping in to the forum and posting something. If you have forgotten your user ID and/or password you can just drop me an email for a reminder, or just register a new one. The forum has proved very useful in the past for swapping ideas, and providing encouragement, so do check it out. In the meanwhile, my very grateful thanks to Si.

2007 Roadshows - booking now

We've really enjoyed visiting a wide range of churches in 2006 with the "FW Roadshow". Normally, we stick to one date a month, in order to be around as much as possible for our own church in Catford. For 2007, we are planning a few extra dates to help meet a backlog of demand, and as will also be offering an option for two new "themed" Roadshows on Prayer (featuring songs from "iPray") and the Bible (featuring songs from "Get into the Word"). If you are interested in finding out more, or would like to book a Roadshow and/or training workshops for your own church, or a group of churches, then do drop us an email.

Songwirters' Showcase hits milestone

We were thrilled recently to hit a milestone of our 100th artist feature in the Songwriters' Showcase. The showcase is completely free and simply offers a chance for grassroots writers to get their songs to a wider audience - the Showcase regularly gets several hundred visitors every day. If you are a writer and then we'd love to feature your songs!
