Singing Together!

"Music is an important part of our worship life here at ECA. We have choir, handbells, and feature various solo instruments on a weekly basis including organ, piano, harp, and flute.

"Music washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life."

— Berthold Auerbach

Choirs

  • Sanctuary Choir

    The Sanctuary Choir supports our sung liturgy and enhances our worship services with a broad range of anthems from classical, contemporary, spirituals, gospel, and others. We seek to musically highlight and reinforce the lessons of the day and create a sacred atmosphere in pursuit of the glory of God.

    We rehearse on Sunday mornings at 10am before the service, and twice a month on 1st and 3rd Saturday mornings at 10am. Whether you can attend all the rehearsals or not, if you're interested in singing with us, please come unite your voice with ours!

  • Handbell Choir

    Ruthanne Adams Martinez, Conductor
    (aka: chief ding-a-ling)

    The Handbell Choir is a joint venture between ECA and our sister church CCAV, UCC. We are a joyful community of ringers who range from novices to seasoned performers of 25+ years, with a diverse range of professional and musical backgrounds. We rehearse on Wednesday afternoons from 4:30-6:00pm and play both churches' services on the second Sunday of the month.

    Sound intriguing? We welcome all who want to participate together with us! Please join us!"

  • Casual Choir

    Kimberly Axtell,
    Choir Leader

    Casual Choir is an opportunity to sing a new song! We focus on contemporary music that reflects our ever-changing walk with the Divine, embracing many musical styles including gospel, and call and response. We also give special emphasis to women composers and hymn-birthers which reflects a different relationship to the Holy.
    Rehearsal occurs on the Sunday morning before the services in which we participate. The music that is selected is designed to be melodic and sung in unison. We welcome singers of all levels, from expert to haven’t sung before.

    Together we make a joyful noise!
