Music Ministry


New Music Opportunities in 2024
JOYFULLY NOISY
Are there any folks out there who played an instrument in band or orchestra? The Joyful Noise Ensemble would love to include you. We play about 5 – 6 times per year. Rehearsals are not on a regular schedule, but are keyed to the occasional performance. It’s a fun group. Contact Gay at gspears@nhpres.org if you are interested.
 
REALLY NOISY AND ALSO FUN
And, if there are some folks who like to sing, we’d love to include you in the choir. Rehearsals take place regularly on most Wednesday nights from September through Pentecost, and we sing for most of those Sundays (and a few in the summer). Singing in a group has been shown to strengthen social bonds, create feelings of belonging and cooperation, and results in benefits to physical well-being, such as relieving stress and improving cognitive functions. And…the choir gets to hear some great jokes. This is a fun group. Contact Gay at gspears@nhpres.org if you are interested.

New Hope Presbyterian Church Adult Choir

Music is a language all its own, and enriches our worship experience. The chancel choir participates in weekly worship and prepares special offerings throughout the year, especially for Christmas and Holy Week. Often the youth join us as we celebrate our lives together as a church. 

In addition to organ and piano, we  incorporate a variety of musical instruments, including brass, woodwind, strings, and hand bells. 

Become a part of our worship.  Express yourself through music!
