■ Welcome

We welcome you to another season of music-making at Christ Church, Georgetown. For over 200 years, this parish has served as a center for traditional Anglican liturgy and music — worship that has stood the test of time and which continues to function as a valuable tool for outreach and evangelism to people of all ages.

We invite you to join us for some of the special liturgical and musical events that will take place during the 2019-2020 season: three concerts

by some of the region’s leading orchestral and vocal performers; a liturgical rendering of Maurice Duruflé’s monumental Requiem Mass, Op. 9; two services of Lessons and Carols in December — one for Advent and one for Christmas; the annual Parish Potluck Dinner and Hymn-sing; and, of course, Choral Evensong, offered on the first, third, and fifth Sundays of the month. Above all, join us on Sunday morning, when we gather to worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness.

For centuries, the Church has played a vital role in the cultivation and promotion of artistic and, in particular, musical endeavors — both within and outside the context of the liturgy. That tradition continues here at Christ Church, Georgetown.

We look forward to greeting you!

The Rev. Timothy A. R. Cole Thomas P. Smith Rector Organist and Choirmaster
