St. Barnabas Choir

Music at St. Barnabas serves and supports our worship and is an important part of our offering and outreach to our community.

music program mission statement
In our worship, we make a conscious and active commitment to include a wide variety of musical styles, while maintaining the highest quality of musical performance possible in our offerings to God. This means that within a single worship service you may experience an African chant, a Bach chorale, a dulcimer solo, organ and piano music, a jazz hymn, a gospel anthem, an Anglican psalm or a rock ballad. All of this music is unified and celebrated within the framework of the Episcopal liturgy, centered on the Gospel texts, the theme of the day and the liturgical season that follows the Christian year. We are blessed at St. Barnabas Episcopal to have many fine musicians representing a large variety of diverse backgrounds and experience. All have opportunities to offer their musical talents as fully as they desire. We welcome and encourage all who wish to participate.

the adult choir
Music is a vital part of the worship experience at St. Barnabas Episcopal Church. Surely there no sound on earth more pleasing to God than that of an ordinary congregation singing its heart out, and at St. Barnabas we are very active participants in congregational song. The Choir of Saint Barnabas helps to lead our congregational singing through their musical ministry, whether it is a hymn, anthem or service music. From September through mid-June, the choir performs challenging music of many styles. Whether you are a singer or only hum in the shower, there's a place for you in the Choir. Consider becoming a part of a truly talented group of individuals who minister through music each Sunday.
