Jazz Vespers with Eno River Unitarian Universalist Fellowship and North Carolina Central University Jazz Studies Program

The Eno River Unitarian Universalist Fellowship is collaborating with members of North Carolina Central University Jazz Studies Program in creating a series of Jazz Vespers worship services during 2019 and 2020.

Jazz Vespers will take place at the church, 4907 Garrett Road, Durham, in 2019, and will move to Hayti Heritage Center, 804 Old Fayetteville Street, Durham, in 2020.

Vespers is an ancient Christian tradition of Evening Prayer, consisting of psalms, hymns, chants, prayers, and readings from the scriptures. Today vespers has been embraced by many different spiritual communities and will often include contemporary innovations such as congregational singing, readings, poetry, silent meditation, or contemplation.

While readings, singing, prayer, words of wisdom and contemplation are present, in jazz vespers the element of music is a focal point of the service.

These events are free.
