Directed by R Douglas Helvering, the choir leads Sunday morning worship at alternating services each week from September to June. They rehearse Thursdays from 8:00 p.m. to 9:30 p.m.

Weekly Audio Recordings are on our website, and click HERE for the Choirs' Schedules.

Our choir has approximately 20 members, and the music they sing is very varied. Pieces they enjoy range from classics such as "Schubert's Mass in G" and "Oh, How Amiable" (Ralph Vaughn Williams) to more contemporary works such as the African American spiritual "Ain't Got Time to Die," "Praise His Holy Name" (Keith Hampton), "Day by Day" (Mark Hayes), and "Cantante Domino" (Dave and Jean Perry).

The Adult Choir leads special worship services such as Christmas Eve, Maundy Thursday, Good Friday, and Easter. In May 2006 and April 2008 they performed joint concerts with St. Paul's Lutheran Church, East Windsor. In recent years, they have also presented musicals, performed "Messiah," and offered other special presentations.

We are blessed to have a Yamaha Grand Piano, and a Two-Manual Casavant Organ.

The congregation is also fortunate to have many talented musicians who share their musical gifts in worship. They play instruments such as recorder, flute, clarinet, french horn, violin, guitar, guzhend, djimbe, and others.

The primary reasons for having children's choir in our church are to involve children in worship, teach them about worship and what it means to be a Christian, and offer them musical education. Giving our children and youth the opportunity to actively participate and lead in worship not only teaches them about worship, but it also helps them undertand that they are an important part of the life of the congregation.

In addition to frequent worship participation, these Children and Youth Choirs present an annual Christmas musical and have often presented a special musical event in the Spring.
