Our youth Choristers and Chamber Choir will offer this service of choral evensong, with youth serving as readers and audiovisual technicians.

"I’m in the midst of first anniversaries of emergency rooms and what would become an eight-month stay in medical and nursing facilities. However, now over what will be two weekends, I will have successfully gone on a weekend away, officiated a wedding of one of my best friends standing the whole time, and have biked a 5K as part of a fundraiser for National Rehabilitation Hospital (an institution that has helped me regain not only physical strength, but mentally and spiritually). You never know what the first anniversary will feel like--so it’s hard to prepare for them emotionally--but I’m glad to be filling up some of these firsts doing things that many thought would be medically impossible."
