Men's Vespers Schola is currently on summer break. So there will be no 4:30pm practice for Men's Vespers Schola on Fridays. However, we still sing Vespers at 5pm daily in the church and all are welcome to come for that. We plan to resume the 4:30 Friday time when school starts back.
Chant made easy! Many men never learned to sing after their voice changed. We have a new opportunity to rediscover your God-given voice and use it in His praise. Fr. Carter has begun teaching a Men’s Vespers Schola on Friday afternoons at 4:30pm, open to anyone whose voice has changed into the lower octave. Sung Vespers in English follows at 5pm. No musical experience is required; Father will show you everything you need. On most Fridays, we will meet in the church at 4:30. On First Fridays, we will meet in the Nursery at 4:30 for training, while First Friday Adoration is in the church. Then at 5pm we will move into to the church to sing Vespers. Click on the title above to see a
video with the kind of chant we sing. Our Vespers will be in English. We start with very simple melodies and work our way up. However, newcomers are welcome any Friday.
For those who don't fit the low-voice qualification this program - younger boys, girls, or ladies who want this type of opportunity - we'd love to have you try out our youth schola or our adult choir! And there is the option of singing Vespers or Morning Prayer together on the other days of the week also.
