Acts 2:1-21
Thank you to everyone that attended "Requiem" on April 24th. The Chancel Choir and instrumentalists worked very hard to prepare the music for this service of worship. It is a joy and privilege to get to lead such a fine group of musicians. This service is just one aspect of the ministry they perform. They lead in worship week after week and the music always comes from the heart. Thank you choir and Dr. Tom for your tireless support of this ministry. We have room in the choir for more folks. We meet each Wednesday night at 7:00 to prepare for the Sunday service. Come and attend and see if this is the place for you to share your talents. We also have a fine youth choir and children's choir that are open to join. These two groups are finished for the year but will resume in August. Thank you for letting me serve you in the ministry of music. Steve
