Chancel Choir
Rehearses on Wednesdays from 6:00 to 7:00 pm in the sanctuary during the school year. We sing a wide variety of musical styles of church music. On Sunday mornings we meet at 8:30 am in the sanctuary to review the music for the services. We sing for the 9:00 and 10:30 am services. During the 10:30 am service we sing in the first part of the service and the choir exits the choir loft before the message. For those who cannot commit to weekly participation in the Chancel Choir, seasonal opportunities are available. This choir is led by David Morton. If you are interested in participating, contact David Morton at dmorton@carmelumc.org.
Contemporary Praise Band
The Contemporary Praise Band leads music during the contemporary worship service at 10:30 am on Sunday mornings. This service features contemporary praise and worship music and has a more relaxed worship atmosphere. The Praise Band currently meets on Sunday mornings at 9:00 am for rehearsals before the 10:45 am service, with each team member having learned the music throughout the week at their own convenience/on their own schedule. We're always looking for more members, so if you're interested in playing an instrument or singing with the Praise Band, or for more information about us, please contact mkeohane@carmelumc.org.
