Music Ministries

Chancel Choir – This choir is open for adults and high-school-aged youth. The Chancel Choir provides service music for worship on a weekly basis. The choir most often sings for 11:00 am worship, but occasionally they do sing at the 8:45 am service. Special music is provided several times during the year, including the Choir Musical service in December. Rehearsal is on Wednesday at 6:30 pm.

Early Service Music – Music is provided most Sundays at the 8:45 am service. Vocalists may be used as soloists or in duets or small ensembles. If you are unable to commit to participation in the Chancel Choir, singing at the early service provides another way to use your gift of music in worship. Rehearsals are scheduled on an as-needed basis.

Handbell Substitutes – Substitute ringers are needed on occasion to fill a position in the Joyful Ringers. It is difficult to rehearse in bells if a spot is missing, so this group serves a vital role in the handbell program. Music reading and handbell experience are required.

Instrumentalist – If you play an instrument, there are many opportunities for services at Unity. Many anthems for both adults and children require additional instruments. All types of brass (particularly trumpet), flute, oboe, violin, guitar and percussion are occasionally called for. Piano accompanists are also occasionally needed, particularly to play for the children’s choirs.

Joyful Ringers (Handbells) – This handbell choir is comprised of adult and high-school-aged ringers who are committed to attending weekly rehearsals and playing in worship several times a year. Prior handbell experience is preferred, but not required. However, the ability to read music is required.
