MUSIC NEWS
During the summer months, we invite you to join our summer choir. There are
no weeknight rehearsals, just a simple practice on 9AM on Sunday mornings to
prepare for worship. There will be no difficult music and anthems-just those
favorite songs we all grew up singing. Everyone is welcome to join us as we
lift our voices in songs of praise. This is an excellent way for you to
experience the choir if you have never done so. If you have any questions,
please contact Matt Daniel or any of our choir members.
| OPPORTUNITIES TO SERVE

Eucharist on Sundays as well as other major Feast days throughout the church
year. This group also offers a wide variety of Choral services throughout the

Choir is open to men and women High-School age and up. Come and join us as we
