MUSIC MINISTRY
ADULT CHOIR
The Adult choir prepares and presents various styles of musical offerings to our Lord the 1st & 3rd Sundays in our 9:00 am worship service September through June. Rehearsals are held Wednesdays at 6:30 pm in the choir room (Adult Education Hall). Although our membership requirement is ninth grade at a minimum, there is no upper age limit. Our goals are to:
- Provide quality musical praise in support of the overall worship experience that brings our congregation into a close meaningful relationship with our Lord.
- Provide an opportunity for church members and friends to fellowship in times of preparation and presentation of musical offerings.

Our 3 Octave Bell Choir consists of members (Grade 9 and up) who may have some music knowledge and are able to count to the beat. They perform the 3rd Sunday of each month, in both worship services, September through May. Rehearsals are Thursday evenings @ 6:00 pm in the Bell choir room (Adult Education Hall).
