Saint David’s Episcopal Church invites you to attend a service of Choral Evensong (sung evening prayer or vespers) on Saturday, April 20, at 5:30 pm. Two touring youth choirs from Saint Mark’s Cathedral in Seattle will sing at this service. The choirs will also participate in the 9:30 worship service the following Sunday morning.

Saint Mark’s Choir School is a member of the Royal School of Church Music in America. Their program emphasizes well-rounded musicianship as well as lifelong growth in music and faith; vocal and ear training as well as theoretical knowledge; and ministry through liturgical leadership and community service for grades K-12.

The Boys and Girls Choir, directed by Rebekah Gilmore, includes grades 3-7. The Youth Ensemble, directed by Brian Fairbanks, includes grades 8-12 and younger men with changed voices. Both choirs sing music from a variety of traditions from Taizé chant to gospel to world and traditional music. They sing Choral Evensong regularly at the Cathedral.

Saint David’s Church is located at the corner of Park & Marguerite. For more information, call 378-5360.
