Music
Music at First Congregational
Every voice is appreciated here, whatever its training. From the classics to contemporary, there is something to sing or play all year.
Chancel Choir
The Chancel Choir welcomes adults from high school on and sings every Sunday at the 10 AM service during the school year. Rehearsals are Wednesdays from 7 to 8:30 PM, from the last Wednesday in August through May. Directed by Dr. Gerald Kreitzer.
Handbells
The handbell choir, directed by Cathy Bixby, rehearses Wednesdays at 6 PM during the school year and plays in worship about once a month. Bell experience is not required.
Youth Choir
For grades 3 through 8, directed by Cathy Bixby. Rehearsals are Wednesdays at 6:45 PM, and the choir sings in worship about once a month. See the Children and youth page for more.
Instrumentalists and summer music
Through the year there are chances for instrumentalists to play for special services or as soloists. In the summer, while the choir rests, vocal and instrumental soloists and small groups provide the special music. Contact Dr. Gerald Kreitzer or Doris Gitzy, our organist, to share your gift on a Sunday.
You are welcome here
Join us Sunday at 10 AM
The service lasts about an hour, there is a staffed nursery downstairs, and coffee waits in Fellowship Hall afterward. Can't get here? The service is live on YouTube and Facebook every week.
