St. James' Parish offers two adult choirs – the Chancel Choir and the Celebration Choir – both are comprised of volunteer singers. No special musical ability or great singing voice is required to participate in the choirs! Everyone is welcomed and encouraged to come together for fun, fellowship, worship, discipleship and ministry - oh, and they sing, too!
The Chancel Choir sings at the 11 AM service and features traditional music. The Celebration Choir sings at the 9 AM service choosing more contemporary praise music. Fall Choir rehearsals will resume on Wednesday, September 6 at 7 PM (Celebration Choir) and Thursday, September 7 at 7:30 PM (Chancel Choir). For more information about choir activities, please contact Parish Music Director, Michael Ryan at mryansings@verizon.net.
