ADULT CHOIRS
The First Church adult choirs sing a variety of challenging music ranging from classical to contemporary. Everyone who enjoys celebrating their faith through music is welcome. With a few exceptions, auditions are not required to join ensembles.
Chancel Choir
The Chancel Choir is the main service choir at First Church. The 65-voice ensemble is made up of adults, college age on up. Rehearsals are every Thursday night from 7:00 to 8:30 p.m. in Room 13. Child care is provided during rehearsals. The choir sings in worship every Sunday from September - June and for special services (Christmas Eve, Ash Wednesday, Holy Thursday, Easter etc.) In addition, the choir presents at least two concerts during the year, usually with orchestra and other guest artists.

Summer Choir sings at the 10:30 am Worship Service from the first Sunday in June through Labor Day. Rehearsals begin at 9:45 am on Sunday mornings in Room 13. Everyone from high school age on up is welcome to come!
