The CHANCEL CHOIR is made up of approximately 20 men and
women under the
direction of Joel Rugerio
The CHANCEL BELLS, ringing 4 octaves of handbells, rehearse for an hour every Thursday beginning at 6:40PM. This adult choir plays monthly during the 11:00AM Sunday service, at the Boar's Head and Yule Log Festival, at special worship services and at weddings upon request.
The RENAISSANCE REEDERS is a consort of recorder players which perform at The Boar's Head and Yule Log Festival and on other special occasions, both within the church and in the community. This group rehearses on Sunday mornings or when called.
The JUNIOR HANDCHIME CHOIR is a newly formed group of 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade
children who meet at 5:00PM on Sundays. In addition to performing on special
occasions, the children receive instruction in ringing technique, music reading
and rhythm skills. Most of all, they learn to make music together.
The Chancel Bells, Renaissance Reeders, and Junior Handchime
Choir are under
the direction of Beth Hoekje. New members are always welcome to our music
program. Click
