All liturgical churches observe some form of Evening Prayer (vespers), a practice that has existed since at least the middle ages. Glowing candles, chanted psalms and appointed readings mark this time of reflection at the close of the day. This is an appropriate time to remember all of those who perished in the terrorist attacks on our country ten years ago. With them, we remember the first responders,our leaders, our people serving in the military, and those whose lives have been forever altered - and we offer our prayers for peace.
There will be hymns, prayers, silence, and music by the Festival Choir.
All are welcome. Please join us.
