The Nineteenth Sunday After Pentecost

The Nineteenth Sunday After Pentecost

Lord, we pray thee that thy grace may always precede and follow us, and make us continually to be given to all good works; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who liveth and reigneth with thee and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen. (Proper 23)

Admission of Choristers 

We welcome back the Alumni of The Saint Thomas Choir School who join The Choir of Men and Boys in singing Evensong today. They are gathered together for the admission of three new choristers into the Saint Thomas Choir of Men & Boys. Previously, the new choristers had been among the group of younger probationers who sing at the 9am service most Sundays.

About Evensong: Based on the services held daily in the medieval Church, Choral Evensong as arranged in the Book of Common Prayer of the Anglican Church has been sung regularly since the Sixteenth Century. Many people who are new to worship at Saint Thomas prefer to come to Choral Evensong because it is relatively passive. The service includes readings (just as would occur at Evening Prayer) and prayers led by a priest. An anthem as well as a setting of the Magnificat and the Nunc dimittis are sung by the choir. Read more about Choral Evensong here, or view the Choral Evensong Service Card posted to the bottom of this page. There is no Mass following Choral Evensong on Sundays. If you would like to make your Holy Communion for the week, consider attending one of the morning Eucharists, or else at any of the other fourteen masses at Saint Thomas later this week.

‚ñ∫The Rector speaks about the Feast of Dedication, and therefore about Doubting Thomas, in his weekly audio message.
