A Service of Celtic Evensong will be held at All Saints by-the-Sea Chapel, Southport on Sunday, Aug. 26 at 5 p.m.

ln our hurried and noisy world, we offer gracious space and an evening's hour to enjoy the power of quiet ... gently touched by candlelight, music and prayer. The Celtic tradition holds that we find God in Chríst in our hearts, in each other, and in all creation. Through moments of reflection and calm, quiet words, fine music and the words of a Celtic Evensong, we refresh this tradition.

The Rev Maria J. Hoecker, rector of St. Columba’s Episcopal Church, will officiate. Timothy Harrell, organist and choirmaster at Trinity Episcopal Church, Solebury, Pennsylvania, will be the organist.

A free-will offering will be taken to benefit the All Saints/St. Columba’s Joint Outreach program.
