Choir rehearsals start soon! We welcome all voices—no auditions required! If you love to sing and want to participate in the special music at St. Paul, we'd love to have you join the Concert Choir, the Worship Choir, or both choirs! To sign up or learn more, call the Concert Series Line at 734-676-2942.
Concert Choir will be preparing for the annual Christmas concert, "Symphony of Christmas" which will be held Friday, December 12 @7:00pm, Saturday, December 13 @2:00pm, and Sunday, December 14 @3:00pm. Rehearsals begin Thursday, September 11th @7:00pm in the Worship Center and continue weekly on Thursdays.
Worship Choir sings for the traditional services at 5 pm on Saturday and 9:30 am Sunday, usually two weekends per month. There is just one rehearsal, on the Thursday evening before each scheduled performance weekend, and you don’t need to commit to every single rehearsal-just the rehearsal for the weekends you’re available to sing. Any high school aged youth or adult is welcome! The FIRST REHEARSAL is Thursday, September 18, from 6:30 to 7:00 in the Worship Center (preparing music for the weekend of September 20/21) and a full schedule will be available after the first rehearsal.
St. Paul Music Ministry
St. Paul has a vibrant music ministry and we’d love to have you join us. It's not necessary to be a St. Paul member to join these groups, so bring a friend. And no formal music experience is necessary.
Child care is available during choir rehearsals, if you request it ahead of time.
Concert Choir
The Concert Choir, accompanied by an Orchestra, sings for Christmas Concerts, Palm Sunday, and "Salute to our Heroes" Concerts. It's open to all 9th graders and above. Membership to this choir is open to the entire Downriver community—not just St. Paul members!
Worship Choir.
Worship Choir sings for worship services two weekends per month. Rehearsal is the Thursday prior to the scheduled-to-sing weekend, so you can sing when your schedule permits! No auditions, anyone (member or non-member) 9th grade or older is welcome. Worship Choir performs the 1st and 3rd weekends at the 5:00 pm and 9:30 am services. One rehearsal on the Thursday prior to the weekend at 6:30 pm.
Praise Teams.
Praise Teams are singers, guitarists, bassists, keyboard players, and drummers who lead our 11:00 Praise Worship.
Bells of Praise.
The hand bell choir can always use new members, as well! This group rehearses on Monday evenings. We play one weekend per month at our Traditional Worship Services. Rehearsals are on Mondays at 7:00 pm.
For more information about any of our music programs, call the church office
at 734.676.1565 and ask for Cherie Warner or Kim Schutt, or email us.
Praise God in his sanctuary; praise him in his mighty heavens! Praise him for his mighty deeds;
praise him according to his excellent greatness! Praise him with trumpet sound; praise him with lute and harp! Praise him with tambourine and dance; praise him with strings and pipe! Praise him with sounding cymbals; praise him with loud clashing cymbals! Let everything that has breath praise the Lord!
PSALM 150:1-6
