CHILDREN'S CHOIR REHEARSALS

                                                    every Sunday after worship at 10:15 a.m with Mrs. Dall

WOMEN’S SONG

Welcome back to returning members and welcome to first timers, too!....as we begin our fall rehearsals on MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 28^th, 4:00 p.m. in the CHOIR ROOM. We will be looking at anthems for our October worship time and also getting some "musical tasting" of Advent/Christmas new music. We have another rehearsal, MONDAY, OCT. 5^th to polish service music for SUNDAY, OCTOBER 11^th, when we sing at both services.

Please check your calendars and be ready to let me know when you will be away this 2009-2010 program year. This is helpful for me in planning anthems.... especially as we sing three and four part music, each singer adds to the song!

DUC SINGERS

Gentlemen, you certainly inspired worship in your double-header start to the fall.  Thank you!     Our next three-week rehearsal block is OCTOBER 22, 29, and NOVEMBER 5 as we prepare to sing in worship on NOVEMBER 8^th.   Attendance at rehearsals has been excellent, and this does make a difference in the rich depth you bring to our DUC worship. 

CHANCEL CHOIR

The Chancel Choir is always welcoming new members!  Please join us for rehearsals on Wednesday night from 7:00 to 8:30 p.m.  We sing two or three Sundays a month, but you don’t have to participate every week to be part of the choir.    –Maggie Bossi
