The Episcopal Church of the Advent - Spartanburg, SC

Our vision Statement "That Christ’s light be seen in us."

The worship of the Episcopal Church, part of the world-wide Anglican Communion, is participatory. Since the first Book of Common Prayer in 1549, Anglicans the world over have joined their voices together in our common worship. We all participate in readings, hymns and prayers. You are encouraged to offer yourself to this experience so that you may be spiritually nourished by it.

We are committed to providing a world class music program for its parishioners and the community at large. Music is used to unite the congregation in song, and to enable parishioners to use their God-given gifts by offering several choral and instrumental groups.

CHOIRS

The St. Cecilia Choir is a Rite II focused adult ensemble. It sings a variety of church music, including classical Anglican anthems, early American hymnody, gospel, jazz, and occasionally renewal songs. Although the choir does sing in four-part harmony, some pieces are sung in unison or just two parts.

The Advent Schola is a Rite I focused adult choir. It sings very traditional Anglican Church music (though not necessarily from England) spanning several centuries. It also sings classical masterworks (e.g. Handel, Mozart, Brahms) and occasional sings large-scale works (e.g. Cantata No. 140 - "Sleepers wake" by J.S. Bach).

The Youth Choir gives teens grades 7-12 an opportunity to further their musical skills.

The Junior Choir is for children grades 3-6.

The Angel Choir is for children in grades K-2.

The Cherub Choir is a choir for 4-year olds.

INSTRUMENTAL GROUPS

Gabriel's Instruments is a group age 13 and up.

The Advent ‘Toners is the church's hand chime ensemble age 13 and up.

The Carilloneurs Guild provides bell pealing in the Cleveland Memorial Tower before and after church services.
