St. Augustine said that to sing is to pray twice. We agree.
The congregation is invited to join in singing during the service. The music is found in the blue hymnal in the pew rack or the green paperback hymn book (Wonder, Love and Praise aka WLP) at the end of each pew. Hymn numbers are indicated on the hymn board at the front of the church. “Service Music” or sung parts of the liturgy that are repeated on a weekly basis are noted in the worship leaflet or on the hymn board with the letter “S” in front of the number (found at the beginning of the hymnal) or printed on a music insert. You are encouraged to join in the singing of these as well, and they will quickly become familiar to you.
The choir or a soloist offers an anthem about midway through the service, where the congregation is invited to sit and listen.
We often sing Taizé pieces (short, meditative music) at the communion. You should be able to pick up these short, repetitive tunes quickly and sing along.
If you’d like to join the choir, we’d love to welcome you into our midst. We sing each Sunday, except during the summer, and rehearse one evening a week.
Our choir is directed by Ann Patton, our gifted Organist and Choir Director. She is an excellent musician, a pastoral choir leader, and stellar teacher for students of all ages. Ann invites all who are interested in the choir to contact her through the church office at: [email protected].
Private piano lessons, in person or on Zoom, are offered through our church as well. Email the office to find out more.
