Evensong service creates peaceful environment in Calgary Anglican church

Christ Church in Calgary is one of a very few Anglican churches in Western Canada that continues the practice of holding the service of Choral Evensong on a regular basis.

Its final one for this year will be held Sunday at 4:30 p.m.

“Choral Evensong is a quiet, reflective service of sacred choral music with readings from the Bible,” says Margaret Newman, director of music for the church located at 3602 8th St. S.W.

    Lovely. And also lovely is the weekly service of Compline at Christ Church Anglican, in Savannah, GA. Christ Church Anglican is one of the very few churches to offer Compline on a weekly basis. Sunday night – “saying goodnight to God” in chant.
