The Abingdon Lighthouse Church had a musical event on the Market Place on Saturday August 12th. They have been in Abingdon for about a decade and are part of the much larger Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG). RCCG is a worldwide church that was established in 1952 in Lagos, Nigeria, and now, according to wikipedia, has a presence in 196 countries.
Thanks to Elizabeth for sending the picture. I am away for a few days but can publish anything sent to backstreet60@gmail.com. There might even be the odd entry on notabingdon.blogspot.com
I was in Abingdon on Saturday visiting, and I was amazed to see so many people shopping and visiting the town centre. Really vibrant. From some of the comments on this blog i expected to see a ghost town with tumbleweed rolling down the precinct.
It was very busy today (Monday) too. Heaving around the market.
We were in town on Saturday, the music was lovely but SO loud. We wanted to make the best of the weather and maybe stop for a coffee outside but couldn’t hear each other over the music. Surely there are some rules on decibels etc?
