Choir

Come join fellow parish members to praise God in song, use your talents for God’s glory, and have fun. Each choir forms a community that sings, prays and plays together. The choirs at SJV are always eager to welcome new members. There is always room for one more. Come and see. Contact the Prayer and Worship Office for more information.

I will be fully satisfied as with the richest of foods; with singing lips my mouth will praise you.
~ Psalm 63:4–6
