5:00 pmto5:45 pm

Holy silence for the holiday season

Saturday evenings at 5:00, Nov 28, Dec 5, Dec 12, and Dec 19.

Take a much-needed break from holiday busyness and refresh your spirit with these quiet, meditative, candlelit services at Church of the Redeemer. Watch and Pray includes vocal and instrumental music, readings from scripture and poetry, and 10 minutes of silent contemplation.

The theme of the December 5th service is provided by the hymn “Creator Of The Stars Of Night”. Erica Row will perform “Watchman, Tell Us of the Night” by Hovhaness. Pearl Alexander, flute.

Creator of the stars of night,
Thy people’s everlasting light,
Jesu, Redeemer, save us all,
And hear Thy servants when they call.

Thou, grieving that the ancient curse
Should doom to death a universe,
Hast found the medicine, full of grace,
To save and heal a ruined race.
