Rev. Dr. Sondrea Tolbert: The Passing of Dr. James Abbington
We at Scarritt Bennett Center extend our deepest condolences to the family and friends of Dr. James Abbington.
Dr. Abbington was a gifted musician, educator, and worship leader whose ministry touched hearts and lifted voices around the world. We were honored to host him for Hymn Sing Workshops in 2024 and 2025, where he inspired participants through his profound scholarship and spirited leadership, highlighting the sacred music of GIA Publications.
His legacy of excellence, faith, and song will continue to echo through every hymn sung in praise and every community gathered in worship.
May his life’s melody continue to inspire us all to make a joyful noise unto the Lord. Our prayers and heartfelt sympathy are with his family, colleagues, and the countless lives he enriched through music and ministry.
