Participants in the choral, handbell, and praise band will find opportunities for spiritual growth, Christian fellowship, and the development of their musical skills. Worship arts ministries enable people to experience the presence of God through congregational singing and the inspiration brought by choral and instrumental music. Participation is open to all who are willing to invest their time and talents in this ministry.
The Chancel Choir is the primary vocal choir for traditional worship providing musical leadership at the Traditional service each Sunday. Our choir sings a wide variety of sacred choral anthems and also presents special music for Advent/Christmas and Holy Week/Easter. Singers of all ages and capabilities are welcome to come make a joyful noise!
Director: Lou Murray
The Praise Band provides music leadership at our Blended Service every Sunday. This group of musicians and singers plays mostly contemporary Christian music as well as well-known hymns in a more contemporary style. We are always looking for new people to come and share their gift of singing or playing musical instruments such as piano, guitar, bass, and drums.
Director: Scott Weyrauch
The Handbell Choir consists of a group of ringers who ring 4 octaves of handbells. These ringers are part of Saint Cloud FUMC music ministry bringing joy with their melodious music during regular worship and special services throughout the year. Experience reading music and ringing handbells is helpful but not required to join us!
