Ensembles
Atonement Choir
The Atonement Choir leads worship at the 9:00 AM service from September through May. This mixed ensemble of adult singers (high school and up) is open to all who enjoy singing—music reading is not a requirement and no audition is necessary! The choir sings a variety of music from Renaissance to Gospel, enjoying good music and fellowship each week. Making the connections between music, faith, and worship is their calling and their delight!
Handbell Ringers
The Handbell Ringers rehearse weekly on Thursday evenings, September-May. An experienced ensemble, this group challenges its members with exciting music and special techniques. New ringers are always welcome, whether experienced or “new-in-training”. The ability to read music and count rhythm accurately are great qualities for becoming a member. Be prepared to have fun!
Instrumentalists
Instrumental musicians of all ages participate regularly in worship as soloists or in ensembles. Brass, strings, woodwinds, reeds, and percussion instruments are often used to help lead worship. Opportunities for duets, trios, quartets, small ensembles, and accompanists occur throughout the year. Rehearsals are scheduled as needed.
Praise Band
The Praise Band leads worship music at our 10:30 AM contemporary service. Rehearsals are currently on Tuesday Nights from 6:00 – 7:30 PM. Instruments like guitar, bass, drums, and keyboards are welcome, and need only read chord charts. Singers that are comfortable harmonizing and singing alone into a mic make a good fit for this group. For more information, contact our Director of Worship & Music.
