My Friends:
We hope that you will enjoy this hymnal as much as we have enjoyed writing it. Feel free to sing along with the choir.
If you have any ideas for future songs, readings, healings, etc., please write us. We are always happy to hear from the Faithful Fen and we hope that you take all this in the good spirit in which it is intended.
Yours in Trek, Doctor Trekwell.
