Adult Choir is a welcoming group of singers who help lead worship throughout most of the year, singing at most Sunday services outside of the summer season. The choir presents music that reflects the message and season of the church year, helping prepare hearts for Scripture and the sermon.

The choir sings a variety of sacred music that deepens worship and invites the congregation into moments of reflection, celebration, and praise.

Adult Choir also serves as one of the primary ensembles in our annual Christmas Cantata, often joined by instrumentalists and supported by other music groups.

While choir music can sound rich and complex, singers of all experience levels are welcome, and members learn together in a supportive and encouraging environment.

Hope’s Handbell Choirs are made up of 4½ octaves of Malmark English Handbells and 5 octaves of Choir Hand Chimes.

Adult Handbells is an opportunity to participate in the tradition of musical worship through the distinctive voice of handbells and handchimes. Ringers work together to present music that enhances worship and supports congregational singing.

Although handbells may appear intricate, new ringers quickly find that learning happens step by step. No prior experience is necessary, and the group is welcoming and patient as new members learn.

The Adult Handbell Choir plays periodically in Sunday services and participates in special services throughout the year, adding a rich and resonant sound that complements both choir and congregational singing.

Instrumentalists who play band or orchestral instruments are invited to share their musical gifts in worship. Throughout the year, musicians have opportunities to accompany the Adult Choir, participate in special music, and contribute to seasonal and festive services.

In worship, instrumentalists often support choral pieces or provide additional musical depth that enhances the message of the service. Their contributions add richness and variety, helping create meaningful moments of reflection and praise.

Instrumentalists are also an important part of our annual Christmas Cantata, where they often perform alongside the Adult Choir as primary performers, with Kid’s Choir, handbells, and other musicians assisting.

Whether you have years of experience or are simply looking for a way to use your musical gifts, there is a place for you to serve and be part of worship through music.

The Praise Team leads music in all Saturday night worship services, guiding the congregation in contemporary worship through a variety of musical styles.

Rather than performing for the congregation, the team helps lead worship—encouraging participation, setting the tone for the service, and supporting the message of the day through music.

Vocalists and instrumentalists work together each week to create an atmosphere that invites the congregation to sing, reflect, and pray together.
