Music Ministry
We have a very active music ministry and though small, we are quite mighty. We are always in need of new singers and ringers. Of particular need are sopranos and basses at the moment. No experience is needed but it certainly helps to be able to carry a tune! We are very flexible so snow birds are very welcome to join us when wintering here in Florida.
Whether you feel a little insecure or you are looking to make your solo debut free coaching/mentoring and lessons are available to anyone interested.
Thursdays (Mid-August - Trinity Sunday)
6:00 p.m. Bell Choir
7:00 p.m. Sanctuary Choir
Sunday Morning Warm-up: 9:00AM

We are always looking to add to our programs. If you are interested in playing your instrument for worship, beginning a new ensemble such as a childrens choir, male choir, a capella chamber ensemble, instrumental ensemble, band, liturgical dance please contact Linda to let her know of your interest.

Simply place your sealed written request inside it and we will be happy to offer prayers with and for you. We wish you God’s blessings.
