🎶✨ You’re Invited: Holden Evening Prayer Around the World ✨🎶

Join us this Wednesday for a beautiful evening of music, prayer, and community as we participate in Holden Evening Prayer Around the World 2026!

This sacred global gathering invites people across the world to lift their voices together in song and prayer — and we’d love for you to be part of it.

In lieu of a homily, we’ll be singing “The Healing of the Nations” together, along with the beloved Holden Evening Prayer liturgy. Come ready for a lot of beautiful singing and music! 🕊️

Holden Village — nestled in Washington’s North Cascade Mountains and founded in the Lutheran tradition — is currently closed to guests due to mudslide damage, but their spirit is very much alive. Events like this remind us that Holden is not just a place, but a living community committed to justice, mercy, and compassion.

As the directors write: “Our petitions for healing and justice are needed more than ever.”

We hope to see you there! Please share and invite anyone who might want to join in this evening of peace, music, and prayer. 💙
