17 of us gathered at Virginia and Perry Bowen’s home overlooking the Rappahannock for a 5pm Evening Prayer. We used the Prayer Book of 1928 which Virginia remembered as a child. We used some of her favorite canticles and hymns. We thank Susan O for rehearsing the choir for 2 weeks on the canticles and for playing yesterday. We enjoyed the day, the sunshine and the wine and cheese before.
We are a small Episcopal Church on the banks of the Rappahannock in Port Royal, Virginia. We acknowledge that we gather on the traditional land of the first people of Port Royal, the Nandtaughtacund, and we respect and honor with gratitude the land itself, the legacy of the ancestors, and the life of the Rappahannock Tribe. Our mission statement is to do God’s Will in all that we do.
