“But the hour is coming, and is now here, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for the Father is seeking such people to worship him.”
John 4:23
The music for every worship service is carefully chosen to complement the theme of the day’s teaching. The purpose of music in worship is to engage not only our emotions, but also our intellect, enabling us to worship in spirit and in truth.
The Chancel Choir leads the congregation in the singing of hymns and offers sacrifices of praise with anthems and instrumental music at appropriate times during the worship.
If you are interested in joining the Chancel Choir, please contact Amy Turner, Director of Music, at amy@ccrcmemphis.org.
The Chancel Choir rehearses twice weekly — at 9:30 am on Sunday mornings and at 6:00 pm on Wednesday evenings.
