Chancel Choir

All voices are welcome and you may join at any time!
All ages are welcome from high-school students on up!
No previous experience necessary!
Be a part of the worship services by
praising God through music!

The Chancel choir rehearses from Labor Day through Memorial Day, on Wednesday evenings from 7:15 to 8:30pm. The Chancel choir sings at the 10:45 Sunday worship service, and meets at 10:15 to warm up and go through their music one last time.

Come share in faith and friendship through music.

Chancel Choir

The Top 10 Reasons To Be In Emmanuel’s Chancel Choir
  1. Singing improves your lung capacity for air.
  2. Singing and learning music improves your I.Q.
  3. You always have a parking spot every Sunday and Holy day (there is always a choir rehearsal before worship.)
  4. You always have a front row seat during worship (allows you to see who is and who is not coming to church.)
  5. You get communion first (no more waiting in line.)
  6. You get to wear a cool robe (never worry about what to wear to church again.)
  7. Every Wednesday and Sunday you are serenaded by the great organist, Jerry Hubbard! (his lectures on the importance of the choir are as inspiring as his music)
  8. We eat! (occasionally the choir is given treats by one of our very own gourmet chefs.)
  9. You meet, make and build good friendships in your church community.
  10. It’s fun! We sing a lot and we also laugh a lot.

“O sing to the LORD a new song;
sing to the LORD, all the earth!
Sing to the LORD, bless his name;
tell of his salvation from day to day.”
Psalms 96:1-2
