Our Purpose:
The purpose of Resurrection’s Music Program is to glorify
God through His gift of music. In addition to offering anthems
that support the weekly theme, our choirs lead the congregation
musically through support and teaching. Music enhances the
worship services and gives opportunities to use and develop
our God-given talents, while offering them to the Lord. Rehearsals
are an opportunity for fun, fellowship, and devotion.
Adult Choir:
The Adult Choir is for anyone in High School or older who
enjoys lifting their voice to the Lord. This choir, led by
Director of Music Pam Slater, sings an anthem at the 10:30
worship service each Sunday morning, as well as at special
services. The choir also leads the congregation in learning
and singing new hymns and liturgy pieces. Yearly outreach
opportunities are a highlight for the choir members. Rehearsals
are Monday nights at 7:00 pm in the Music Room.
Two Folk Choirs:
Directed by guitar player, Deacon Shirley Algozzine, the two
Folk Choirs lead the congregation in singing scripture songs
at weekly worship services as well as at special services.
The Folk Choir also sings at church holiday concerts, and
especially looks forward to yearly outreach opportunities.
----8:15 Folk Choir – This choir sings scripture songs,
as well as leading the congregation in learning and singing
