Our services are often punctuated with laughter and applause as we share our gifts of hospitality and music. Our hymns are sung with gusto; our chancel choir and bell choirs regale us with joyful noise; the word of scripture is read and proclaimed with relevance; and we are sent into the world to love and serve the Lord through acts of compassion and grace.
The Chancel Choir
The Chancel Choir leads the music for worship in the 10:30 a.m. service and for special services during the year.
Handbell Choirs
Historically, bells have played an important role in calling parishioners to worship or prayer. Without modern telecommunication conveniences, bells were important tools in conveying important events. Often large cast bells would toll to remind the faithful of morning or evening prayers, to signal deaths or celebrations such as marriages or baptisms. Since 1990 handbells have been a part of the worship experience at Westminster Presbyterian Church.Adult Hand Bell Choir
