Our Sesquicentennial

The first service of Emmanuel Church was held at the Mechanics Association Hall in September, 1860, and its cornerstone was laid in June, 1861. We commenced our jubliee on September 26, 2010, with the Rt. Rev. M. Thomas Shaw celebrating Holy Eucharist and Ryan Turner conducting the first cantata of his tenure as music director. See the Fall 2010 issue of Voices for images and quotes from that glorious day. We hope you can join us during this banner year.
