Vocal Choirs
Our vocal ensembles are under the direction of Elizabeth Smith.

All groups meet in the choir room except the Kinder Choir.
Adults:  The Chancel Choir is the principal ensemble serving the 10:50am Sunday worship service, and performs extended works for the Christmas season and Good Friday.  All adults and high school youth are welcome—the only requirement is a willingness to sing and enjoy the community of this lively group.  The choir rehearses Wednesdays at 7:30pm.

Youth 

The Youth Choir performs in Sunday morning services, a Christmas program with the Caroler  and Bell Choirs, and Maundy Thursday worship.  All junior and senior high youth are invited to participate.  We rehearse Sunday evening at 6:45 p.m.  Please check the church calendar as dates may vary.

Children  

The Elementary Choir welcomes children in grades 2-5, and takes part in Sunday morning worship as well as the annual Christmas program with the Youth and Bell Choirs.  Musical games and percussion are included in the fun of rehearsals Sunday evening at 5:30 p.m.  Please check the church calendar as dates may vary.
The Kinder Choir, led by Elizabeth Smith, introduces young singers age 4 through the first grade to the joy of singing together and helping to lead worship.  We meet Sunday morning at 9:30am in the Extended Session classroom of the Education Center.

Joyful Noise: Adults, don’t let your old instrument tarnish in the attic!  Students, play for fun instead of a grade!  Formed in 2004, the Joyful Noise provides a place to refresh or build your skills and have fun playing with an intergenerational group of musicians.  Led by Gloria Jordan, the full ensemble and various small groups play in worship services throughout the year, and for the annual Christmas Dinner.   We rehearse in the Choir Room on Sunday afternoons at 3:45p.m.

Ruah/Early Service Band

Ruah specializes in music that lies outside the repertoire of our other ensembles.  In its short history, the group has performed a wide range of music, from Rock to Celtic folk tunes, for outdoor events and special services as well as Sunday morning worship. For the 8:30am Sunday worship service, we focus on leading the congregation in a variety of new songs for worship, drawn from contemporary, traditional, and global sources.  Membership is by audition/invitation—we are presently seeking instrumentalists! Come and try us on for size.  Rehearsal times vary from week to week, please check with the church office or a band member.
