At the end of our 10:00 am service, Jonathan Rich (author) and Phil Eschbach (photographer) will 
give a presentation followed by a question and answer session. At the conclusion of the Q & A there will be a meet and greet and book signing in Voorhees Mission House. This event is part of a series of author talks on the Florida Gothic Episcopal Churches featured in the book.  St Cyprian's is in the book!

​"Spires In The Sun" is organized in two parts. Part I includes: a description of a typical FL church of the "Carpenter Gothic" style; a recounting of the the advent and growth of the Episcopal Church in FL; biographies of Bishops Rutledge, Young and Weed, with a particular emphasis on Bishop Young and his working affiliations with architects Richard Upjohn, Frank Wills, Charles Haight, and Robert Schuyler. You'll read how women, not surprisingly, played prominent roles in campaigns to build the churches. Part II is divided into 39 chapters, each of which profiles a specific surviving 19th-century Carpenter Gothic Episcopal Church in Florida. These chapters tell the story of how each church was dreamt of, planned, and built by its original mission members. It's very special to be categorized as a "Mission Church".

On Point is a captivating barbershop quartet that came together in Jacksonville under the guidance of Dr. Timothy Workman.  Since 2015, they have taken their harmonious talents to stages across the United States, delighting audiences in Salt Lake City, Las Vegas, Nashville, and Orlando. Comprising talented members Daniel Pesante, Timothy Keatley, Alex Burney, and Taylor Despars, On Point has earned recognition for their exceptional vocal blend and versatile repertoire. From classic barbershop tunes to modern a cappella arrangements, they consistently deliver unforgettable performances that bridge the past and present, all while staying On Point.

The Concert will be in the Church not on the Commons.  There will be Wine & Cheese in the Mission House at the conclusion. Bring an appetizer to share or another beverage of your choice.
