Church Choir
|
If you're somebody who likes to sing in the shower or in the car, or has a tune in your head for much of the day, we'd like to encourage you to consider joining our church choir. You don't need a solo voice, but if you think you'd enjoy singing, we'd love for you to give the choir experience a try. We like to think we have a close-knit group, almost like family, within the choir. We practice at 9:00 every Sunday morning, during the fall, winter and early spring months. One of the highlights of our year is the annual Palm Sunday multi-choir performance in Adel which brings together church choirs from throughout Dallas County. Singing in choir is a great way to praise God and enhance the worship service for others! If you have questions, call Harold Hill at 677-2389 or talk to one of the choir members.

Sunday School Classes
In 1943 an Adult Sunday School class was founded and, except a few blizzards, has met continuously since. The group meets each Sunday at 10:00 am in the sanctuary overflow room. A variety of materials is used to delve into the Bible.
The Children's Sunday School class also meets at 10:00 am on Sunday mornings during the school year. Children in pre-K thru 5th grade learn their Bible stories through play, song, recitation and art.
