Choral Evensong

On the third Sunday of every month, the Saint Nicholas choir and Schola Cantorum adults offer Choral Evensong.

Join Saint Philip’s youth and adult choirs this Sunday, April 21, for an organ prelude that will begin at 4:15pm, followed by Choral Evensong at 4:30pm. A free-will offering will benefit the youth choir’s 2024 UK Residency and Pilgrimage.

This wonderful, ancient liturgy takes the form of sung prayers, psalms, and the traditional evening canticles, the Magnificat and Nunc dimittis, along with a hymn and an anthem. The service is full of meditative moments, as well as the time-honored chanting of the appointed psalms for the day. It is the perfect way to begin or end a week.

Choirs from all over the world sing Evensong week in and week out, and Saint Philip’s considers it a great privilege to participate in this beloved Anglican tradition. Help spread the word, and bring a friend.
