On October 27th, Shelby will return to tell us about German U-Boats in our Charleston Waters. She has done exhaustive research into the German U-boat archives including the cruise logs available for each mission. A visitor to Fort Moultrie Visitor Center today will find displays that says both U-751 and U-455 paid separate visits to Charleston Harbor in 1942, each laying several mines in our waters. Is that accurate? Were there more incursions? What else is there to the story? Come hear what Shelby can tell us about this unseen threat.
Join us for a covered dish luncheon at noon, bring a covered dish of your choice and chicken tenders will be provided. Please let us know you’re coming by making a reservation on Realm here.

All Saints Vesper Service of Remembrance

Held in the evening, this service will focus on remembering and honoring those who have passed away during the year, with prayers, spiritual reflection and gathering of friends and family. The choir along with musicians from the Charleston Symphony will be presenting John Rutter’s Requiem as a part of this service. The Requiem was written in 1985 in memory of his father who had died earlier that year. In his own words: “I wanted to write an intimate requiem rather than grandiose, contemplative and lyrical rather than dramatic, a work that moves us closer to the light rather than darkness.” This is an extremely moving work that shows joy among the sorrow and pain and brings us to Christ’s light thought music.
