Some of the greatest poets of the English language also happen to be priests! Join us as Cathedral clergy and guest preachers offer meditative reflections on John Donne, George Herbert, R.S. Thomas, Thomas Traherne, and Gerard Manley Hopkins, poets whose words have helped centuries of readers explore the meaning of our longing for God.
Choral Evensong is a traditional Anglican service of evening prayer using the historic Book of Common Prayer liturgy. Evensong is sung by the Choir of St. James' Cathedral every Sunday at 4:30pm, preceded by an organ recital at 4:00pm.
