Notes from the Director
We incorporate chamber musicians into our services at least once per month, and feature large instrumental groups every month.
Solos are often presented during the Lighting of Candles or during Offering Music, and may be contributed by any member of the congregation. Please volunteer, and we will find an appropriate Sunday, depending on the sermon topic.
