Choir

“Make A Joyful Noise Unto the Lord” – Psalm 100

Participating in divine worship services as choir members is a sacred responsibility. St. Nicholas’ talented and dedicated choir lift up their voices, bring a richness to the worship experience, and help lead the congregation in giving praise. Directed by David Randal, new members are always welcome and background knowledge in Greek or musical notation is not a prerequisite as long as one has an ear for melody and a heart for serving God!
