After the service, there is coffee hour in St Nicholas Hall and we would love to greet you there. St Nicholas Hall and the restrooms can be reached through the right door at the front of the church.
The service is found in the Book of Common Prayer. Hymns are found in The Hymnal 1982 or Lift Every Voice and Sing (L). The service music is found on the insert in the hymnal.
