At 5:30 p.m. each Sunday evening, St. Stephen's offers a service of Celtic Evensong with Holy Communion. Our Celtic worship is drawn from the liturgical traditions of Iona and Northumbria in Scotland, and the music at these services is contemplative, lively and haunting. The prayers are at once earthy, holy and inclusive. This service has been well received not only by St. Stephen's parishioners, but includes worshipers from other churches in the area, as well as those with little or no religious background. All are welcome at this service.
as an atheist, even i could totally get on board with this. seems like a very peaceful yet contemplative time. i may not agree with the religious part, but having a sense of community and acceptance is a powerful thing.

Very beautiful. May we all one day be ONE in full Communion. Amen.

This must be a very therapeutic human experience. Also, being an Episcopal service, at the center, no doubt is a focus on Liturgy - the Word of God, which is divine.
How very wonderful.
