There will be one service at 10 a.m. at St Edmunds until The Rector returns from his sabbatical in July 2010 Services at 10:00 in St. Edmund's use a variety of liturgical expressions including services on the Iona format, Book of Alternative services and newer liturgical expressions in the Gray Booklet. There is usually the involvement of a Eucharistic lay Assistant, designated Readers, and appointed leaders for the Prayers of The People. An Organist and Choir lead the music.
