Join us today!

All with a voice, come and rejoice!

We have choirs and groups for every voice, and opportunities for bell ringing and other instruments to be heard in worship! It is an honor and joy to give our talents back to our Creator. The text from one of my favorite hymns expresses this so well:

“When in our music God is glorified, and adoration leaves no room for pride.
It is as thought the whole creation cried ALLELUIA!”
Text: F.Pratt Green
Tune: Engelberg, Charles Villiers Stanford

Please consider offering your gifts of service to God through the ministry of music.
You will be greatly blessed!
