Choir
"Where Words Fail, Music Speaks . . ."
At FBC, we value the power of music in our lives. If you feel as we do (and you enjoy singing!), why not consider joining our choir?
Each week, many hours are spent preparing the diverse, meaningful music that enhances Sunday worship. Our choir is an important part of this experience!
We encourage all parts and talent levels to join our choir community. Each section is fitted with a paid professional to make singing more accommodating. Choir members should plan to arrive at First Baptist at 10:30am Sunday mornings for rehearsal.
If you'd like to participate, please email our Director of Music, Lisa Helmel Thomas:
We hope you'll join us in making "joyful noise!"
