Advent Music Workshop
2025-11-16 17:00 - 18:00 (America/New_York) | Fellowship Hall
This upcoming season, we will savor together the anticipation of Christ’s coming by celebrating Advent as its own distinct season. So we may fully participate in Sunday morning worship, we invite you to an informal Advent Music Workshop to learn new music for both the fellowship hall and sanctuary. This event is for everyone – including young kids! Nursery is provided.
On a practical note, we will sing Christmas hymns at the Christmas Hymn Sing, the Choir Concert, our Christmas Eve services, and the Sunday morning after Christmas, but for the Sunday mornings during Advent itself (beginning November 30 and ending December 21), we will sing Advent hymns! While many of these hymns will be familiar, others will be less so, which is why we will give everyone the opportunity to learn these new hymns and participate as fully as possible in worship during the Advent season.
