CELEBRATE

“When in our music God is glorified, and adoration leaves no room for pride, it is as though the whole creation cried Alleluia!” – F. Pratt Green (The Hymnal 1982, Hymn #420)


The arts play a vital role in worship. Here at Grace we strive to praise God through textiles, fine art, theater craft, and music. From the core singing of hymns, psalms, and spiritual songs by those assembled for worship, to the specially prepared musical offerings by choirs, instruments, and soloists, all music is offered solely to the glory of God.

We have five music ensembles, three of which meet weekly during the year (Sept thru May). For more information about any of these groups, contact our Director of Music, Adam Reinwald, at music@graceepiscopalmpls.org.

Parish Choir

Our choir sings every Sunday at the 10 o’clock service, September through May. Rehearsals are held every Wednesday, 7:15-8:45 PM, and at 9:15 on Sunday mornings. The choir also sings on special feast days, including Christmas Eve, Ash Wednesday, Holy Week, and Easter. Other singing times include Festival of Lessons and Carols on Advent 4, and special concerts. The choir’s broad repertoire includes selections from classical and contemporary choral music, traditional and contemporary hymns, gospel, and jazz.
