Expressing our Faith Through Music and Dance
Because the Arts Ministry is vital at the Church, we encourage you to get involved: join the choir, step it up with our dancers or simply enjoy the performances.
Faser Hardin, a versatile virtuoso, is our Director of Music, guiding the Choir in many styles of music, from Classical Church sounds to Spirituals, Contemporary, Bluegrass and Jazz. Rehearsals are Thursdays at 6:30pm and Sundays at 9:15am. In Summer months, the choir doesn't rehearse, but newcomers always welcome. If you love to sing or play an instrument, contact Faser Hardin. faserhardin@churchofthevillage.org
The Joyful Noise Dance Choir uses dance and drama to express our spirit fully and joyously. Trained and non-trained dancers,
children and adults are welcome to join one of our special performances. From Tap-Dancing Sheep at our Annual Christmas
Pageant to sacred dance for Holy Week, we 'make a Joyful Noise unto the Lord!'
Contact Dance Coordinator Martha Chapman to find out more.
