First Mennonite invites community to Evening Song and Prayer
First Mennonite Church invites all to attend an Evening Song and Prayer service in the church fellowship hall on Wednesday, Nov. 29 at 8:15 p.m.
Similar to the traditional Evensong services common in Europe, Evening Song and Prayer is a contemplative service of worship at the end of the day, when "we sing our prayers and pray our songs," according to Wanda Stopher, lead pastor at FMC.
"With song and in silence we will intercede for the world, the church, our community, our loved ones and ourselves," said Stopher.
The service will last about 45 minutes.
First Mennonite is located at 101 S. Jackson St., Bluffton.
