“Worship the Lord in the Beauty of Holiness” (Psalm 96:9)
Beauty in all its forms—visual arts, a thoughtful sermon, and music (to name just a few)—helps us to see God in a more profound way.
St. David’s music program features three choirs that strive to enrich our worship services: the adult choir sings weekly at the 10:30 service, while the children’s choir (4 years-5th grade boys and girls) and treble choir (5th-12th grade girls) sing regularly throughout the year. On Wednesday evenings the treble choir rehearses from 6-7, and the adult choir rehearses from 7-8. The children’s choir meets every Sunday morning at 9:15 at the beginning of children’s formation. All children who attend the formation hour become members of the children’s choir. If you are interested in joining one of the other choirs, or if you would like more information about the music program, please contact Ben Carlisle, Director of Music.
Our newly renovated nave is a beautiful space, and we’re excited to be able to share that space with the wider community. Starting in the fall, if you’re in the church on Tuesday evenings you’ll hear a string orchestra and a flute choir rehearsing (they’re both ensembles of YOSA, the Youth Orchestras of San Antonio). If you are interested in using our worship space for a musical event, please contact the office.

Roots of Anglicanism – A Pilgrimage for the People of St. David’s
You are invited to consider joining a “Roots of Anglicanism” pilgrimage, led by St. David’s Music Director Ben Carlisle, Spring Break 2018 (exact dates T.B.A. once school schedules are published) to visit churches that have been influential in the history of Anglican worship. Each day of the pilgrimage will be centered on one of the Church of England’s great cathedrals or collegiate foundations (potentially including Canterbury Cathedral, St. David’s Cathedral in Wales, and St. Paul’s Cathedral in London). A typical day will include a group tour with experienced guides, often including special behind-the-scenes glimpses. The daily focus of this pilgrimage will be to join each institution’s worshiping community for Choral Evensong or Choral Eucharist, sung by its own resident choir. Optional informational, educational, and sacred gatherings will be offered for those interested in participating later this summer, and throughout the next year. There will also be opportunities for fundraising available. If you have questions or would like more information, please contact Ben Carlisle.
