Traditional Anglican Evensong will be offered by the Old North Choir & Clergy on Friday, July 3 at 6:00 pm, featuring hymns and prayers for the nation on the eve of 250th anniversary of American Independence. All are welcome to this liturgy of music, scripture, and prayer at the close of the day.

Choral Evensong
Evensong is one of the treasures of the Anglican liturgical tradition, dating to the first Book of Common Prayer in 1549. It is cherished by cathedrals and small parish churches alike at the close of the day.
Choral Evensong at Old North features music by the church’s professional and volunteer choir and prayers offered by the vicar and clergy. The July 3 service will include patriotic hymns and offer historic prayers for the nation on its 250th Anniversary of Independence. All are welcome.

Special Event
July 4th at Old North
Join us for our annual Independence Day celebration! Throughout the day, there will be dramatic readings of the Declaration of Independence in the sanctuary, complete with booing and hissing at the mention of the king.
In our courtyard, the delightful musical duo Tripp and Toddy will entertain visitors with period music and stage a “duel to the death.” We will also offer guided tours of Old North’s crypt, where 1,100 people are laid to rest, and bell ringing chamber, where Paul Revere rang bells as a teenager.
Worship service

Sunday Services
Our Sunday services follow the liturgies in the Episcopal Church’s Book of Common Prayer, supplemented by a rich array of resources from across our Anglican tradition, especially the Church of England and the Anglican Church of Canada, as well as our Lutheran full communion partners.
Most Sundays we celebrate the Holy Eucharist, also called Holy Communion or the Mass. Choral Matins (traditional Anglican Morning Prayer) is offered several times a year. Lessons & Carols are held in Advent and Epiphany.
