The Chancel Choir rehearses on Thursday afternoons starting at 3:30 PM and on Sunday mornings from 9:45 AM to approximiately 10:15 AM. This choir performs not only an anthem during the 10:30 AM service but also a Choral Introit, Prayer Responses and a Choral Benediction. The Chancel Choir also strives to present both a Christmas Cantata and a Palm Sunday Cantata each year.
Our Chancel Choir consists of dedicated individuals who enjoy singing and priasing God through music. No previous experience is necessary. All those who might be interested in joining the Chancel Choir are invited to attend a rehearsal. Membership in the Chancel Choir averages in excess of 40 people.
If you'd like to join the Chancel Choir or have any questions about it, our Director of Music would love to talk to you. Please contact the Dr. Ryan Holder, at 928-637-6030 or via email at

THE HANDBELL CHOIR
Directed by Wilma Draves, the Handbell Choir rehearses on Monday mornings at 9:00 AM in Painted Cliffs Hall.
Typically, this ensemble performs once per month for both the 8:30 AM and 10:30 AM worship services. Several times each season, the Handbell Choir joins with the Chancel and Sunrise Choirs to perform musical works that encompass the Chorus, Handbells and Organ (often with additional instrumental accompaniment).
If you'd like to join the Handbell Choir, or have any questions about it, Wilma Draves would love to talk to you! Please contact the church office at 282-7963.
"The Belles" HANDBELL CHOIR
A few of the members of the Church's regular Bell Choir have organized their own Handbell Quintet called appropriately, "The Belles." The Belles perform every once in awhile as "Special Music" during church services.
From left to right is Suzanne Moore, Mary Rubel, Barb Roberts, Dee Carr and Bobbie Gillam.
The Sunrise Choir rehearses once each week, on Sunday mornings from 7:45 AM to 8:10 AM, and performs during the 8:30 AM service on the same day. Membership in the Sunrise Choir averages around 15 people.
The Sunrise Choir is a great way to first get involved with a choir as it does not involve as much time commitment as the Chancel Choir. No previous experience is necessary. If you would like to join the Sunrise Choir or have any questions about it, they would love to talk to you! Please contact the church office at 282-7963.
