choir that sings regularly at the 10:30 a.m. worship services.
Directed by Alan Biehn, the choir is open to people of all ages that
enjoy singing church music. At Christmas, the Chancel Choir performs
their annual Christmas Cantata. They participate in worship services
from September through early June and wrap up the year with a robust
Choir Sunday service of music. Chancel Choir rehearses each Wednesday
evening at 7:00 p.m. in the Sanctuary.
CHILDREN'S CHOIR
The Children's Choir is part
of the Kid's Club program. (See Kid's Club page). They sing once a
month throughout the year and rehearse as a part of the
Wednesday evening Kid's Club hour.

shut-ins and members with health issues. If you like to visit with others,
or are available to take people to the doctor or grocery shopping, or
if you can help people straighten out their bills or do small home repairs,
please consider joining this group.
Change-For-Change
- Loose change offerings collected at all Christ Church worship services
benefit numerous local, regional and international groups that need funding
help for various humanitarian and faith-based programs.

Jesus says, "Ask, and it will be
given you; search, and you will find; knock, and the door
will be opened for you. For everyone who asks receives, and
everyone who searches finds, and for everyone who knocks,
the door will be opened." (Matthew 7:7-8)
