“What Are the Moral and Spiritual Issues of the 2026 Elections?”

Music for Pride Sunday, June 14
In preparation for our Pride Sunday service, ALL FOLKS are invited and encouraged to sing in the choir for this one-service commitment! We will rehearse on Thursday, June 11 from 7:00pm to 8:15pm, and will end our rehearsal with a time of fellowship (i.e., food and wine).
Summer Pick-Up Choir Returns!
Beginning May 31, Summer Pick-Up Choir will lead our worship while the formal Adult Choir, Choristers, and St. Nicholas Choirs take a summer hiatus. ALL are invited to meet in the choir loft at 9:15am on Sunday mornings. There, we will learn the hymns, psalm, and any additional music for our 10:00am service. There is no commitment beyond the Sunday you show up, there are no mid-week rehearsals, and we don’t even wear robes! It’s a great opportunity to share in the music-making at SPR.
