Hey, it's Heather, and I want to remind you about our very special tours to the UK.

In 2017, we'll be doing tours focusing on the Even Song experience.

The Even Song service comes from Cranmer's Book of Common Prayer from the mid-16th century.

It's been dubbed the Atheist's Favorite Service because it requires so little and it gives so much. It's simply

divine choral music sung in some of the most historic chapels, abbeys and cathedrals in England.

We'll be spending 10 days visiting places like Cambridge, Oxford, Bath, the Cotswolds,

Winchester and Windsor with walking tours, free time to explore,

and then gathering back each afternoon for the Evensong Service if you choose to attend.

It will be 10 days of beautiful countryside, historic cities and villages, and so, so much music. I invite you to go to Englandcast.com slash tours

History Podcast. I'm your host, Heather Tesco, and I'm a storyteller who makes history accessible

because I believe it's a pathway to understanding who we are, our place in the universe,

and our connection to our own humanity. This is another joint episode with Melita Thomas

of Tudor Times. This is the third joint episode we've done, and I'm looking forward to doing

a great deal more original content and podcasts with them. Just a quick note that the Renaissance

English History podcast is a proud member of the Agora Podcast Network. The Agora podcast of the month is
