St John's Choirs
Chancel Choir
The Chancel Choir at St Johns Presbyterian is a talented group who love to sing to the glory of God each Sunday at the 9:30 a.m. worship service. Throughout the year, the choir sings music of many styles and genres and offers music for special services during Advent and Lent. Talented soloists and instrumentalists also enhance worship during the year. A major work, such as The Dubois Seven Last Words of Christ, performed on Palm Sunday, 2006, is also a part of the choir's repertoire each year. Wonderful fellowship, a shared commitment to praising God through glorious music, and a love of singing make being a part of this group a cherished experience.
The Chancel Choir rehearses on Thursday evenings from 7:45 - 9:00 p.m. Visitors and new members are always welcome! |
Children's Choir
The St. John's Alleluia Choir provides an opportunity for chidren in grades one through five
to participate in worship through organized group singing and encourages joyful musical fellowship.
The Alleluia Choir performs occasionally during the regular 9:30 a.m. Sunday morning worship service.

Handbell Choirs
Currently there are three handbell choirs at St. John's. We ring three octaves of Shulmerich bells, as well as three octaves of handchimes. We have an adult choir, a Senior High choir, and a Middle School choir. Rehearsals begin in September and typically end in May. Knowledge of music is helpful, but not necessary to participate.
The Devon Chapel Bells (the Adult Handbell Choir) rehearses on Thursday evenings from 6:30 to 7:45. We ring six or seven times a year at the regular Sunday morning service. Currently there are eleven women who make up this choir.
The Rejoicing Ringers (High School Choir - 9-12th grades)They rehearse on Sundays from 11:00 to 12:00, right after the church service. They usually ring five times a year, alternating with the adult handbell choir.
The Jingle Bells (Middle School Choir - 5th, 6th, and 7th grades) They rehearse on Sunday evenings from 6:00 to 6:45. They, too, ring about five times a year.
For more information about any of the handbell choirs, please contact Betsy Miller through the church office at 610-688-5222. |
