At Immanuel, we believe that worship is the most important thing we do as a congregation. Our worship empowers us to carry the Spirit into the world in which we live and work. Immanuel Presbyterian values music as prayer, gratitude, and celebration. In addition to our Sanctuary Choir, we have two children's vocal choirs and three handbell choirs of varying ages and skill levels.
We'd love to have you join us in. Be sure to come a few minutes early! The sanctuary fills up quickly.
The Sanctuary Choir, directed by Dr. Walter (Billy) Schurr, rehearses on Thursdays from 7:00 to 8:45 pm, and welcomes all adults who enjoy singing. This choir provides leadership on Sunday mornings throughout most of the year, and brings an extraordinary variety of music to our worship services. The choir is made up of singers with different musical backgrounds and different levels of experience. Prior choir experience is not required. We welcome winter residents! We have several folks who sing with us for just a few months. They hail from as far away as Iowa, Wisconsin, New York, Minnesota, and even Canada!
The Sanctuary Choir on Easter and Christmas Eve ...
Our sanctuary is equipped with a 3-manual Allen Renaissance digital organ and a Kimball grand piano, and we enjoy singing traditional hymns and upbeat praise songs.We frequently supplement our music with a
variety of percussion instruments such as timpani, orchestral bells, bongos, suspended cymbal, steel drum,
and djembe, many of which we are fortunate to own thanks to a memorial gift from the Al Siepert Estate.
