MUSIC MINISTRY & WORSHIP CHOIR
THE WORSHIP CHOIR
Stylistically, the Worship Choir — who gathers mid-week for practice and community, and then helps to lead Sunday Worship & Song — is eclectic. Our range is from traditional hymns, pop to rock, rhythm & blues, and songs our great grandparents sang to songs written last week. The important part is that we sing together in praise, in prayer, in love, in friendship, in joyfulness, in sadness, in despair and in hope. The choir meets weekly on Thursdays from 4pm-5:30pm, and Sundays 9am-10am. If you've been longing for a way to connect and get creative, please come and join us! You can reach out to Anna with any questions or interest.
FREE THE SONG
Music on Sunday morning is for all to participate. As a congregation, Oak Bay United has found its voice and sings enthusiastically, both songs known well and songs that are just being learned. It seems that all those studies on the value of community singing were right! Singing enlivens the spirit and is an important part of a healthy spiritual practice.
