WPCS chaplain Geoff Findlay gave staff at National Express Dundee a lift yesterday (Thursday) when he arranged a surprise visit of the Gospel choir from the Redeemed Church of Dundee as a treat for one of the workers. Geoff, who is chaplain at the local depot, knew how much Yvonne Wilson (pictured front with Geoff and some of the choir) liked the song: ‘I will follow Him’ from the Whoopi Goldberg film, ‘Sister Act’. So he and Yvonne’s bosses hatched a cunning plan to surprise her.

Geoff asked the choir, under leader Ebeneezer, if they’d come and sing to Yvonne and they were only too happy to oblige. Yvonne burst out laughing when she realised what was going on – and spotted Geoff complete in borrowed Gospel gear. “We get on fine,” she said. “I usually sing the first line to him when he calls round on Thursdays!”

Said Geoff: “Yvonne’s been going through a tough time recently and we thought this would let her know we are all thinking of her.”
