Parry for the prelude, during which time you may light a candle and offer prayers. The St. James Choir will sing Lighten our Darkness by Alexander L’Estrange, Preces & Responses by Herbert Sumsion, Evening Service in E by Horatio Parker, and Save Us, O Lord by Edward Bairstow. The closing voluntary will be Grand Choeur in D by William Faulkes. The organ at St. James is a Harrison & Harrison with recent Walker additions.
