“Make a joyful noise to the Lord, all the earth; break forth into joyous song and sing praises!”  Psalm 98: 4

Vocal and instrumental music enhances our worship and communicates the Good News. Our Adult, Children’s and Praise choirs, organists and pianists, and Praise band glorify God through the language of music.

ADULT CHOIR
Ability to read music not required – only a love of singing praise to God. The Adult Choir practices at 7:30 p.m. on Wednesday nights. A highlight of the Adult Choir’s year is Christmas in August, when the group meets for the unveiling of the annual Christmas cantata and to share a time of fellowship. The annual cantata is presented during a Choral Worship Service on the Sunday morning before Christmas. Choirmaster and organist is Eddie Rivers.

Art can express The Word, bring glory to God, and celebrate the gifts of creativity. Visual art is regularly displayed in the sanctuary or other appropriate places in the church. Artists in the congregation also share their talents by creating props and backgrounds for Vacation Bible School and other ministries.

The 2004 Vacation Bible School Class for adults created this beautiful colored-paper mosaic depicting the Creation story under the leadership of Mrs. Heather Harris. This colorful mosaic now hangs in the church sanctuary.
