About Night Song: We all need time set aside from the demands of daily life and the troubling issues facing our country and our world — a regular time to be still, to find clarity and purpose, and to center ourselves for the coming week. This 45-minute, candlelit service, a program of First Church in Cambridge, Congregational, will help you recharge for the challenges of life. Enter into stillness and be transported and transformed by ancient and modern contemplative music.
*Attend in Person*
--Start your new week in a sublime and tranquil way, basking in the exquisite beauty of chant and choral music sung in the reverberant First Church sanctuary. Wearing a mask is optional, and practicing social distancing is easily possible.
