Celebrating God ~ Serving One Another
Our mission is to provide the opportunity for individuals to serve as ministers of God’s grace through music, drama, and dance.
ADULT CHOIRS
FUMC invites singers of all levels to join either of our two adult choirs. Rehearsals are fast-paced and fun. We enjoy a terrific time of praise and fellowship as part of each practice and worship service. Occasionally, the Chapel and Chancel Choirs combine for special performances.
Our adult choirs are active in ministry both during worship and beyond the Church walls. Some of our activities include an annual spiritual renewal retreat, mission and service projects, and occasionally, singing the Star Spangled Banner at area sporting events!

The Chapel Choir sings in our 8:30 a.m. worship service.
Rehearsal: Sundays 6:30 - 8:00 p.m., SB 105
Chancel Choir

CHILDREN'S CHOIRS
Kingdom Kids (K-2nd grade) and Flame Force (3rd-5th grade). Both choirs meet Sunday mornings during the 9:45 Sunday School hour and also Wednesday evenings during Faith Break.
We sing the same music at both times so that if the child attends only Sunday or Wednesday they are ready to sing with Kingdom Kids or Flame Force during worship and special events.

We sing a wide variety of anthems and praise music and perform in worship each month throughout the school year, as well as in occasional special services.
