Music

As members of Christ's Body, one of the greatest joys we can know is joining together in the music of praise and worship. Not only does it bring personal blessing, but it also ushers in the presence and unity of the Lord to us as a whole.

At NNUMC, we consider the ministry of music as indispensable to developing an atmosphere of Spirit-filled worship. This applies equally to all ages and to any stage at which an individual may be in his/her spiritual journey.

Our program begins with active musical involvements for children and parents on a weekly basis, then progresses through youth and adult musical ministries.

"Speak to one another with psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs. Sing and make music in your heart to the Lord, always giving thanks to God the Father for everything, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ."

Eph. 5:19-20, NIV
Make an Evening of It

Dinner's ready for the whole family (including a kid's menu) every Wednesday starting at 4:30 p.m.

Then, parents can choose from various adult activities, while youngsters are off to engaging programs of their own. WISP (Worship in Song and Praise), for grades 2-4, prepares kids to present in morning worship (about once a month) with singing, ringing, or rhythm and drums (Orff style).

It's all here waiting for you, along with your friends!

Children's and youth music groups participate in worship weekly and engage in major musical productions each year. Registration information is available in the church office.

If you have any musical background or talent, please consider becoming a part of our music groups NNUMC.

You are warmly invited to participate or to recommend others for same. For more information, please contact Rob Newell at 593-7600, ext. 209, or e-mail music@nnumc.org.

Adult Choirs

Sanctuary Choir
This choir offers warm Christian fellowship with emphasis on musical excellence and weekly participation in worship September through May. In the summer, Sanctuary Choir gives way to Family Choir, a spontaneous, informal musical experience, requiring less time commitment and musical expertise.

The choir presents at special concerts and seasonal services, and features a wide variety of musical styles and moods.

Regularly scheduled rehearsal times are on Wednesday evenings (child care available upon request). However, alternate rehearsal times can be arranged for young adults with special scheduling needs. Also, recordings of up-coming pieces are available for study at home or in the car. This makes possible full participation in the choir by young adults through our YOUNG ADULTS MAKE MUSIC ("YAMM") program.

Spirit Fill
Includes a variety of vocal ensembles for more accomplished singers wishing a higher level of commitment in musical preparation and presentation. Open to all ages from high school on up. Presents in worship several times per season.
