Mission: The RUMC Chancel Choir seeks to glorify God as we lead the congregation in worship, through music, and in supporting, caring, and praying for one another in Christian love.
Chancel Choir Membership Information
What is the time commitment?
The choir sings weekly during our Sunday worship services and other special events. Sunday morning warm up begins at 8:30 am in the choir loft. Mid-week rehearsals are Wednesday evenings, 6:15-7:15 pm. There are no mid-week rehearsals during the summer months of June, July and August.
What is the attendance policy?
With an understanding of how busy life can be, choir members are simply expected to participate as fully as they can. Hopefully, that will mean regular attendance at rehearsals and Sunday services. When attendance is not possible, choir members are encouraged to communicate absences in advance. Conflicts due to work or family are a normal part of life.
What are the requirements?
Singers should be able to sing in tune and hold a part. Basic music reading skills are very helpful but not required.
How do I join the Chancel Choir?
Contact our Director of Music Ministry to plan a visit to a choir rehearsal.
