Choir Practice is on Wednesday at 7:15 P.M. - 8:15 P.M.

Music Ministry at Christ Lutheran Church  Music Ministry is a vital part of Christ Lutheran Church, which has a thriving music program, and has opportunities for all ages and abilities.  Children, youth, students, and adults contribute their energy and talents to praise God throughout the seasons of the church year.   Our congregation’s musical life is enhanced by the adult choir, the children’s LOGOS choir, various instrumentalists who contribute special music, and the churches concert series, which brings in performers from around the world.  We invite you to join with us in our worship of God through music, even if you cannot commit to a great amount of time, by performing at special times of the year, like Christmas or Easter.    The Organ Our pride and joy is our Taylor & Boody pipe organ (Opus 24), which is a two manual, mechanical key and stop action organ.  The instrument leads congregational singing, and is capable of handling a wide range of solo literature, and can be played without electricity by hand pumping.  It has 2400 pipes and can be very soft or dramatically loud.  For a complete stop list and more information about this and other instruments by Taylor & Boody, please visit their website: http://www.taylorandboody.com/  Rehearsal Schedule: The Adult Choir meets on Wednesday evenings from 7:15-8:15 P.M. in the choir room.  The choir leads congregational singing and provides special music at church services every Sunday morning (during the regular school year) and for special services such as Thanksgiving Eve, Christmas Eve, Easter Ever, and for Holy Week.   The Children’s LOGOS Choir meets on Wednesday’s from 5:40-6 P.M. (seasonally) See our Youth Director, Tom Miller, for more information on LOGOS.  The Men’s Choir, which is our newest musical addition at Christ Church, meets on a “called” basis.     PLEASE SHARE YOUR TALENTS WITH US!!!   Concert Series The concert series at Christ Lutheran hosts performers from around the globe to perform a wide variety of programs, from solo organ recitals to choral and small chamber ensembles.  While there is no admission charge for recitals, donations are what keep the series going.  We ask that you please consider donating towards these programs.
