SING FOR YOUR SUMMER –The Summer Choir rehearses on Sunday mornings from 8:45 to 9:20 a.m. – then leads the music at the 9:30 a.m. service in the sanctuary. The music is fun and not too difficult – the choir does not wear robes – and everyone is welcome to sit with their friends or family in the congregation: the choir comes to the front and sings only the offertory, late in the service. Everyone is welcome – adults, youth, children. If you have questions, call the music office (913-671-2344) or simply show up on any Sunday you are in town.
