All Souls Requiem

Durufle Requiem to be offered at Church of the Redeemer

All are invited on Sunday, November 2, 2014, at 5:00pm to a Requiem for All Souls—a service of scripture, prayers and Maurice Duruflé’s Requiem. Director of Music Michael Diorio will conduct the combined adult choirs of The Redeemer along with the Schola Cantorum (youth choir) with chamber orchestra and Michael Stairs, Organist Emeritus. The service will take place in the Church of the Redeemer, 230 Pennswood Road, Bryn Mawr, PA.

All Souls Day, the day following All Saints’ Day, originated as a day of remembrance for friends and loved ones who have passed away. This candlelight service takes place on the Sunday the church designates for the observance of All Saints’ and will include portions of scripture and prayers appropriate for All Souls offered throughout the singing of the Requiem.

Childcare will be provided in the Parish House nursery during the service. Reservations for childcare must be made in advance at www.TheRedeemer.org/rsvp.
