Chancel Choir

Rehearsals: Wednesdays, 7:30 p.m. Choir Room

This adult group is the cornerstone of Trinity’s music ministry, and welcomes youth and adults. In addition to providing music for worship, the Chancel Choir has presented dinner theaters for many years, under the leadership of former Music Director-Organist, Mary Shoup. This ministry has provided entertainment for the community, and funds raised from the shows have enhanced many areas of Trinity’s life.

Choir singers

For those who cannot participate in the choir year-round, there will be opportunities for occasional participation. These will be announced in the weekly news and worship bulletins.

Director: Tom Machen

Handbell Choir

Rehearses: Wednesdays, 6:45 p.m. Bell Room

In addition to the three-octave set of Schulmerich handbells, the Chancel Choir fund has recently purchased two octaves of Malmark Choirchimes. Youth and adults ring the Schulmerich bells, and participate in worship for special occasions.

The Organ

The Sanctuary Organ is a two-manual 1925 Austin pipe organ. It was renovated in 1981 by the Austin Organ Company, at which time some pipes were removed and others were added. The organ features an Echo division which is housed above the Sanctuary ceiling.

Celebrate the eternal God with harp and psaltery, Timbrels soft and cymbals loud in this high praise agree; Praise with every tuneful string; all the reach of heavenly art, All the powers of music bring, the music of the heart.

- Charles Wesley, 1743
