Adult Choir
Welcome to the new and returning members of the Choir who have come to serve during the 2009-2010 ministry season. We are looking forward to serving and praising God together!
The choir is a vital instrument that God has touched to minister to the congregation of our church.
Our Role:
- To assist and lead the congregation in corporate worship through the singing of hymns, gospel songs, and choruses.
- To share anthems and seasonal music intended to inspire, to challenge, to encourage, and to reinforce our worship as believers in Jesus Christ.
