MUSIC PROGRAMS

Lutheran worship is grounded in a strong musical tradition. At St. Andrew’s, our music includes expressions from cultures around the world and every age. We invite you to join us this Sunday and make a joyful noise to the Lord!

Parish Choir

The Parish Choir is open to adults, from high-school age and up. Members enjoy being an integral part of the worship services each Sunday as they lead the congregation in the liturgy and sing anthems that complement the readings of each service. The Parish Choir also sings at other special services throughout the year.

If you have a love for singing and a desire to contribute to the ministry of the church, we welcome you to join the choir at any time. The Parish Choir rehearses almost every Wednesday night at 7 pm.

If you have questions, please call the church office at 803-772-6034.

Children's Choirs

St. Andrew’s’ children’s choirs sing with uninhibited joy and enthusiasm during worship on various Sundays throughout the year.

Joining the Cherub or Junior Choir is a wonderful way to make new friends, develop or enhance musical skills, have lots of fun and serve God through the gift of music. New members are welcome at any point during the year.

Adult Handbell Choir

The Adult Handbell Choir practices weekly, usually on Monday evenings at 7 p.m., and performs every four to five weeks from September through May. They are also one of 12 handbell choirs from across the state that perform for the annual Governor’s Carolighting at the State House in November. A basic knowledge of musical notation is necessary. Substitutes are always needed, and new ringers are welcome when openings exist.

Questions? Call Jenny Walrath at 803-772-6034 for more information.

Intermediate and Youth Handbell Choirs

Handbell Choir opportunies exist for young people beginning with the fourth grade through high school, and range from those with little or no musical experience to some of our high schoolers who have been ringing for as many as eight years. These groups are separated by age and skill level, and meet three Sundays a month from August through May. If you are interested, contact the director, Jenny Walrath, at 803-772-6034.


St. Andrew's Ensemble

Attention Musicians! Do you play an instrument and would like to gather with other church instrumentalists and occasionally offer your musical talents during worship? Or, do you like to sing, maybe can't make the weekly commitment to choir, but would like to have the opportunity on occasion to help lead congregational song? Middle schoolers through adults are welcome to join us! Please contact Jenny Walrath (coordinator and facilitator) for more information, 803-772-6034.

Instrumentalists

Attention Instrumentalists! Your talents are appreciated and your participation encouraged at St. Andrew's. We welcome you for solos, ensembles, and to accompany our choirs. Instrumentalists take part in weekly worship and major festivals throughout the year. Occasional meetings and rehearsals are publicized in advance in the church bulletin and newsletter.
