The Chancel Choir is Central’s adult choir. This choir rehearses weekly on Wednesday evenings from 7:30p.m. – 9:30 p.m. and sings each Sunday morning for worship (except for the month of July when they take a summer recess). In addition to the literature sung on Sunday mornings, the Chancel Choir prepares major choral works that are sung in worship or other venues in the church life. Music sung in worship includes all styles of classical music, spirituals and gospels, and standard church music. The Chancel Choir is open to college-age students and adults. David A. VanderMeer, Director of Music Ministries, conducts of the choir; and Michael Morgan is the accompanist.
Chancel Choir Mission Statement
The Chancel Choir of Central Presbyterian Church leads worship by presenting offerings of musical, liturgical and theological integrity that undergird the spoken ministry of the Word; faithfully interpret the diversity of expressions within the church over time; strengthen and nourish those who hear it; and ultimately glorify the Triune God, the source of all music.
