Ministry

 

 

This ministry exists to enhance and facilitate corporate worship, to develop individual gifts for ministry, to promote stewardship of those gifts, and to pass on the Gospel through the powerful medium of music and the arts.

Take just a few moments and check out the opportunities for service and development offered to you and your family by the music ministry of Anchor Baptist Church.

 

Sanctuary Choir – The primary choir for our Sunday morning services of worship. Seasonal musicals include Christmas and Easter. Rehearsals are Wednesdays at 7:30. Any singer is welcome.  Conducted by Dr. Peters.
Chamber Choir – This group is for highly motivated singers who seek to stretch their abilities by singing challenging repertoire. The Chamber Choir sings during Advent, our Christmas Eve service, Holy Week, Easter and other times. Another goal for this choir is touring to other churches and other countries. Auditions are required for this ensemble. Dr. Peters conducts.
Instrumental Ensemble – Instrumentalists of intermediate or better skills are invited to accompany our Sunday morning services of worship.
Rehearsals are Wednesday evenings at 6:30. Conducted by Dr. Peters.
For children we offer a fully graded choir program. These groups provide young ones with a well rounded curriculum for musical and spiritual formation. More than just teaching cute songs by rote, this program seeks to develop musicians. We desire to help children unlock their musical abilities and to provide avenues for meaningful participation in worship. These values will last for a lifetime! Choirs for children include:
Young Musicians – for 4th through 6th graders.
Anchor Boy Choir – for boys 6 years old through voice change. This group sings several times a year particularly at Advent, Christmas and Easter. Dr. Peters conducts this choir.
Music Makers – for 5 years through 3rd graders.
