Our Chancel Choir fills the sanctuary with God's word through music, adding to the friendly atmosphere of our worship services. They present an anthem each Sunday and lead much of the special music for services such as Ash Wednesday and those in Advent including Christmas Eve.
Music marks the beginning of Sunday school classes each week. The children gather and sing along to various traditional bible songs, sometimes including the use of drums and tamborines. They participate in worship services throughout the year, singing and playing instruments. In addition, they have had exciting opportunities to learn and perform sign language to some of the songs they sing. Children's Sunday is a special day in June each year where the entire service is prepared and presented by the children and youth. There are no choir rehearsals for either group in the summer, but that means a lot of opportunities for Special Music!
This group rings with our beautiful set of handbells spanning three octaves. The youth rehearse from 12:00-12:30 on Sundays. They perform several times a year, bringing joy to any service. Please see our director Bobbi Morton if you are interested in joining.
Do you have some music that you would like to share with the congregation? We've had people bless us with their gifts of voice, piano, guitar, drums and flute, among several other instruments. Or perhaps you would like to try a duet or something new. Please speak with Betty Land, our minister of music, about this great opportunity awaiting!
