"Then sings my soul, my saviour God to thee, How great thou art; how great thou art."

Good evening from All Saints' Church, Northallerton, where the Archdeaconry of Cleveland will welcome the Rt Revd Barry Hill, consecrated Bishop of Whitby two weeks ago, in a joyful service full of colour and music.
