Choral Evensong: Feast of the Ascension

  • St. Paul & the Redeemer Episcopal Church of Hyde Park and Kenwood 4945 South Dorchester Avenue Chicago, IL, 60615 (map)

Join us for one of the gems of the Anglican Music Tradition: Evensong.

Based on medieval monastic offices, this service takes place in the evening, marking the passing of another day. Sung primarily by the choir, Evensong allows those gathered an opportunity for contemplation, prayer, and inspiration.

Join us as we celebrate the Ascension of Christ into heaven. A festive reception to follow.
