Our next service of Evensong will take place on Sunday, February 26th at 4:00 PM.
Join us as we listen to God through the versicles, canticles, and lessons that make up the form of this service and forget the ceaseless activity of daily life, for a while.
Conversation and sherry to follow.
Gregorio Allegri’s exquisite and timeless “Miserere mei” (Psalm 51) reaches from the depths of history into hearts and souls of our time as the Lenten Season dawns. It, traditional hymns, Gregorian chant and 20th century motets by Durufle and Vaughan Williams again adorn the Holy Eucharist and Imposition of Ashes offered by the Parish Clergy, Choir and Congregation on Ash Wednesday, February 22nd, 7:30pm at St. James’, Dundas.
Join us on Shrove Tuesday (February 22nd) for a Pancake Supper, from 5:00 PM – 7:00 PM. Children under 10 years: $3.00 / Adults: $6.00 & Families: $15.00.
Consider beginning your journey through Lent with St. James, Dundas, with Ash Wednesday (February 23rd) observances at either 10:30 AM or 7:30 PM services, with Imposition of Ashes and Holy Eucharist.
