Music and Choir
Music and choir play a significant role in our worship services and community life. We think it is vital in worship and spiritual life and serves as a powerful tool for connection, inspiration, and community building. Our music reflects the diversity of Unitarian Universalist beliefs and practices. It encompasses a wide range of musical styles and traditions, and fostering a sense of shared experience and spiritual exploration
