Evensong

Sunday, November 6, 5:30 
PM,  Nave
Evensong is the ancient service of Vespers and continues to be sung daily in cathedrals throughout the world. The Saint Paul's Choir sings Evensong twice during the year, in the fall and in the spring. Mark Dickens will be the guest organist and the service will include the premiere of the Preces and Responses composed by Heard Robertson, former Head Boy of the Canterbury Choir, now a dad with four children. Heard's brother, Jonathan, will be the cantor. Other music is by Gerre Hancock, John Rutter, and Edward Bairstow. A reception hosted by the parishioners of Saint Paul's Church follows in Tyler Hall. This is a great occasion to invite friends to visit Saint Paul's.
Evensong Reception  - Hospitality Team Update

Dear Parishioners,

We are having an Evensong on November 6, at 5:30 PM. We need refreshments for the reception that will follow the service. Our receptions are attended by the community and we are known for our hospitality. Many of you have been very gracious and contributed to make these receptions successful. Please look at the following menu and if you can contribute, please contact me. You may bring your contribution to church that morning and leave it labeled with your name in the downstairs kitchen or you may bring it before attending the Evensong that afternoon. Please make arrangements to have your dish picked up after the reception.

I will respond to each of you individually and will send two updates for everyone to see before November 6. There is also a need for volunteers for preparation, serving, and clean up. If you are able to volunteer, please let me know.
