Drawing on literature from chant through the twenty-first century, the Parish Choir of Grace Church is composed of youth and adults who rehearse weekly and sing for the 10:45 a.m. Sunday liturgy. In addition, they sing for special liturgies throughout the church year, such as Advent Lessons and Carols, Evensong, Christmas Eve, and Holy Week. From late August through May, the Parish Choir rehearses on Wednesday evenings, from 6:45 to 8:30 p.m., and on Sunday mornings at 10 a.m. During the summer months, the Choir rehearses on Sunday mornings at 10 a.m.
