Choirs for All Ages
Join one of our choirs and make a joyful noise unto the Lord! We offer exciting choral opportunities for people of all ages. Don’t worry if you’re new to our Baptist church, as all our choirs are open to new members and do not require an audition.
Youth Choir
Our Youth Choir has been privileged to perform at renowned venues such as Walt Disney World, the SonPower Youth Choir Camp, and other Baptist churches across the United States. Every year, they master new and exciting music, including popular worship songs for our corporate worship services, show tunes, and popular music for our dinner theatre fundraisers.
This choir travels each summer on tour, joining other youth choir students nationwide to engage in ministry and mission efforts while sharing their musical gifts. The Youth Choir is open to students in grades 7-12 and rehearses on Sundays from 5:00-6:00 pm during the fall and spring semesters.
Joy Choir
The Joy Choir is a senior adult choir that travels to share the message of Jesus through hymns and gospel songs with other adults. Their ministry also offers comfort and support through gestures like hugs and handshakes.
The choir alternates between rehearsals and ministry concerts at nursing homes and care facilities every Tuesday from 10:00-11:00 am during the fall and spring semesters. The members enjoy lunch together after their concerts, adding even more fun and fellowship throughout the day!
Sanctuary Choir
The Sanctuary Choir leads the congregation in worship every Sunday and special music events during the holiday seasons. Open to anyone aged 16 and older, rehearsals for this group are held on Wednesdays from 7:15-8:30 pm in the sanctuary. Join our weekly worship-leading choir at our Baptist church and utilize your talents to glorify God through worship!
Kids Music at Camp Wednesdays
Get ready for an exciting time of singing, dancing, and learning about worship during our Camp Wednesdays! Designed specifically for children in kindergarten through 6th grade, this revamped Wednesday night experience allows them to explore essential Bible truths through music and deepen their understanding of worship.
Through this program, children will discover the meaning of worship, why it is important, and the significance of lifting our voices in praise to God. They will also have the opportunity to share what they learn during special worship services throughout the year. We also offer a slightly shorter program called Music & More for 3’s & 4’s for your younger kids.
Instrumental Music
Our Baptist church is comprised of people from all different kinds of backgrounds. We strive to offer a broad range of music styles to represent our diversity in worship. This is reflected in our instrumentalists. Our worship ensemble rehearses Wednesdays from 6:30-7:15 pm in the sanctuary.
Worship Ensemble
The Worship Ensemble is responsible for providing instrumental accompaniment during our weekly worship services and special music events throughout the year. This dynamic ensemble consists of piano, organ, rhythm section, and wind and string instruments. Our Baptist church embraces various music styles in our worship, which is why we incorporate diverse instruments to enhance our musical offerings.
Joining the Worship Ensemble requires an audition process. If you are interested, please get in touch with Scott Davis, our Minister of Music & Administration, to schedule an audition.
