St. Paul's Episcopal Church

This summer, AfterGlow Chorus invites you to a musical offering that is a deep dive into the architecture of the human heart. "The Gift of Love" is a concert carefully crafted as a sanctuary of sound—a place to find profound comfort, rest, and emotional healing for caregivers, those navigating loss, or anyone simply carrying a heavy season.
Through the rich, live harmony of stunning vocal music, our choir will envelop the room in a vibrant tapestry of sound. This afternoon is designed to be a holistic journey: a vocal embrace that honors our shared grief while ultimately lifting the spirit with a powerful, unmistakable sense of communal joy, hope, and resilience.
"There are moments when the harmony is so pure it feels like the air in the room changes. AfterGlow doesn't just perform; they create an atmosphere you never want to leave." — Recent Concert Attendee
<h3>The Musical Emotional Journey</h3>
The program moves seamlessly through different landscapes of the heart, beginning in quiet reflection and building toward an uplifting, soulful celebration:
Movements of Serenity and Light
<ul><li>Angele Dei (Susan LaBarr) — A luminous, angelic opening to quiet the mind.</li><li>Alleluia (Thomas LaVoy) — A soaring, immersive wall of vocal sound.</li><li>Ubi Caritas (Maurice Duruflé) — Timeless, hypnotic beauty rooted in ancient grace.</li><li>O Holy Lord (Nathaniel Dett) — A majestic, deeply grounded reflection on faith.</li></ul>
Songs of Release and Resilience
<ul><li>Wanna Die Easy When I Die (arr. Ysayë Barnwell) — A raw, powerful spiritual processing grief.</li><li>Give Me Jesus (arr. Moses Hogan) — Deeply comforting, soulful vocal storytelling.</li><li>Wade in the Water (arr. Stacey Gibbs) — A stirring movement of strength and purpose.</li></ul>
Uplifting Anthems of Joy and Soul
<ul><li>Healing (Richard Smallwood) — A powerful modern gospel masterpiece written to restore the weary.</li><li>If I Can Help Somebody (arr. Nathan Carter) — An inspiring musical reminder of our shared humanity.</li><li>Bring It on Home to Me (Sam Cooke) — A vibrant, soulful classic to send you home with a full heart and a smile.</li></ul>
