Sounds of Joy
Directed by Amanda Wittebol
This is a preschool group for ages 3-5 years. Parents and children participate together. The children find their singing voices, participate in movement and singing games, and learn about worship. This group does not sing in Sunday worship on a regular basis, but have the chance to show the congregation what they have learned from time to time. Sounds of Joy practice weekly on Thursday evenings from 6:15 – 6:45 PM. This group is limited to 15 children.

Intermediate Choir
Directed by: Josh Zentner-Barrett
Rehearsal: Every Thursday evening – 7:00-8:00 p.m. September to May
Program: Members sing in church most Sundays. By rehearsing the hymns and responses, they become familiar with a rich variety of Church music, with the order of service, and with the seasons of the liturgical year. They also learn to become worship leaders. Once a month this choir sings an anthem, by itself, or with the Adult Choir. Members also enjoy preparing musical plays.

Adult Choir
Directed by: Josh Zentner-Barrett
Rehearsal: Every Thursday evening – 8:15-9:45 p.m. September to June
Program: The role of the Adult Choir is to lead the musical worship of the congregation. Anthems are chosen to represent a wide variety of styles and periods, and to vary in difficulty so that both beginners and experienced singers are comfortable. The choir’s music is meant to inspire the congregation and enlarge on the themes of worship through musical expression.
The Adult Choir also values its role as a caring, close community within the larger Church family.
New members are always welcome.
