Our adult choral group, the Chancel Choir, leads the congregation in regular Sunday worship, and provides anthems and special music. The choir meets for rehearsal each Wednesday night at 6:30pm from August through May. Singers and musicians of all experience levels are encouraged to join.
CUMC is the only church in Athens to feature a pipe organ. Built by W. Zimmer & Sons of Pineville, North Carolina, its pipes, chimes, and zimbelstern were purchased through the generous gifts of members and friends of Concord United Methodist Church and was installed in 1994. The choir also often sings to accompaniment played on the studio grand piano in the sanctuary.
Our children's choir and children's handbell group meets during the last half hour of KidZone on Tuesdays, 7:00-7:30pm. They perform a Christmas pageant in December and special music at other times of the year.
If you have any questions, please contact the church office and ask for choir director Keith Circle.
