Reformation Choir
Thursday evenings: 7:30-9:30pm

Our repertoire is an eclectic mix of styles suitable for worship, from renaissance to modern. An enthusiastic group of some 20+ members, the adult choir is always open and welcoming to new members of all levels throughout the year. Weekly rehearsals start the Thursday after Labor Day, continuing through the 2nd week of June typically. The choir sings regularly at benefit recitals to support local causes inside and outside of the church.
Please take some time to write about how your worship experience has been affected by their presence, and send it to the Director of Music & Arts Paul Leavitt.
Little Laudates
Under the expert direction of Sharon Swingle, the Little Laudates meet regularly for about 15 minutes during the secound service after the second reading, thus around 11:20 in children's chapel, making an appearance every 4 to 6 weeks. Ideally suited to children 4-7 years of age.
