MUSIC NOTES
The music ministry is falling into its new year with a new youth choir, new music, and renewed voices after a summer off of hopeful rest! We look forward to sharing music in worship, spending time together in rehearsals and gatherings with anyone who has a heart and interest in music, and coming as we are called to show up for the Lord and be open to whatever He has in store. The adult choirs, Hope Ringers, Joyful Noise Children's choir, the SNA band, and our new youth choir will all be back in rehearsals and in full swing by the end of this month. On September 10 in ourSaturday night service, SNA, come hear our lead guitarist, Tom Ivory's new original song called, "Live It Right." The adult choirs are back in worship on the 11th, Marcia Roberts will sing on the 18th, and Beth Jones & Wendy Kallen will tickle those ivories with a 4-hand duet on the 25th.
