Music
at All Saints'
In addition to our Sunday morning services of Holy Communion at
9:00 and 11:15 a.m., the Choirs of All Saints' Church offer
a wide variety of meditative opportunities to worship amid
the sacred sounds of the great choral music of all ages,
from ancient plainchant to classic masterpieces to premières
of modern works. Some of these are presented in series:
First Fridays
Opportunities to experience the beauty of
holiness within the context of choral worship on the first
Friday of the month at 7:30 pm.
Missa Mystica
Meditative opportunities to experience the mystery
of God's presence in the Holy Eucharist amid the sacred sounds
of some of the Christian tradition's most mystical mass settings.
Meditation and Prayer in the Style of Taizè
Amid the glow
of a candlelit sanctuary, these quiet, occasional Friday
evening services are a popular, peace-filled way to relax into
the weekend.
