Music at Christ Church

 

 

Bless, O Lord, us Thy servants,
who minister in Thy temple.
Grant that what we sing with our lips,
we may believe in our hearts,
and what we believe in our hearts,
we may show forth in our lives.
Through Jesus Christ our Lord.
 Amen.

Our Choirs

 

The Christ Church Choir is a dedicated group of singers who participate in the fullness of Christian formation through leading worship.

From September to June, the choir meets twice weekly and sings music from across the centuries: from Anglican Chant and canticles to modern anthems and hymns, traditional African-American gospel, and music from the Taizé tradition.

Church Choir

In addition to our Sunday morning worship services, the choir also participates in occasional evening services including Choral Evensong and Lessons and Carols.

Rehearsals are Wednesday evenings from 7:00PM to 8:30PM, and Sunday mornings from 9:30 to 10:15 am. Auditions are not required to join the choir, and anybody is welcome.  Please join us!

 

The Junior Choir is for grades 3-8 and performs several times a year for special events such as the Christmas Pageant and Lessons and Carols. For the Junior Choir schdule click here.
