An exciting collaboration between Movement in Worship and the Psalm Drummers.  The Edinburgh Summer School explores the dynamics of worship and mission through movement and percussion. Building on a devotional and Biblical foundation the school splits into two training streams, ‘Movement’ and ‘Percussion’.  The ‘Movement’ stream led by Andy Au, Kirsty Hallett and the Scottish MIW Team will include intercessory and prophetic movement, an exploration of different dance styles and the use of props.  Through group work the ‘Percussion’ stream led by our own Tim Scarborough will explore worship and intercession using different rhythms.  Many types of hand drums and global percussion instruments will be used.  These streams merge together to take worship and intercession out into the community.  Past schools have gone out to Arthurs Seat, Carlton Hill, the Royal Mile, Princes Street and Edinburgh Castle.  One of the highlights of the week are the fun social evenings.  Cost: £150.  For more information contact David & Maggie Hewitt.

Street or event teams and missions teams play at and support numerous events throughout the year.

Volunteer Psalm Drummers facilitate prayer through drums, offer support at worship events (including workshops) and can also participate or lead a team as part of a mission or outreach program.

Teams are made up from a list of trained volunteers and skilled leaders (CRB checked) who share a heart to further the building of God’s Kingdom through their gifts. If you want to get involved contact us on info@psalmdrummers.org
