St. Mark’s Choir
St. Mark’s Choir is open to adults and senior high students, and is a group very committed to their ministry to the church. The choir sings regularly on Sunday mornings at the 11:00 service, the first Sunday of the month at the 8:45 service with the Choristers, at occasional Choral Evensongs, and at festival services and concerts throughout the year.
The choir’s repertoire consists of the marvelous music of our Anglican heritage and classic choral music by composers such as Bach and Mozart, as well as other more “contemporary” music, such as spirituals and works by currently living composers, both American and English.
Rehearsals are from 7:00 to 8:30 on Thursdays. While the choir continues to sing most Sundays through the summer, it takes a break from mid-week rehearsals from roughly June until September. Choir is a big time commitment, but well worth it both in the fun you’ll have and in the satisfaction you’ll get from leading worship in such a meaningful way. Contact James Holyer at the church office with questions or to sign up.
marrying, and starting a family, she came to St. Mark's in 1975. Family commitments put choir on hold for many years, but she continued to serve as Sunday School teacher, staying active in Chapter 10 (blast from the past), and other ministries. In 1995, she dipped her toes back into music by singing with the Folk Choir. After she joined the church staff as Rector's Assistant, she also took on the duties of assistant director to the Jr. Choir for several years, and then in1998 returned to the adult choir.
