Music

The Village Church has a long history of sharing the lively spirit of music! Our sanctuary has been used for countless performances, from organ concerts, music for fundraisers and benefits, variety shows and more. We are proud of our ongoing events and relationships with the community, and hope you will join us for an event!

Friday Night Cafe

Throughout the year, the we host Friday Night Café, a coffee house series on second and fourth Fridays featuring talented local musicians.

The Cafe wraps up in the vestry this Fall. Refreshments will be limited to hot cider and perhaps cookies. Please no food in the sanctuary. Masks are optional.

Greenwood Music Camp

The Village Church has a 75-year relationship with Greenwood Music Camp, a nationally-acclaimed summer camp for high-school classical instrumentalists. On Sundays in July and early August, campers attend church to form a 50+ member choir! Sarah Pirtle is the minister for these services. A small ensemble of campers provides the prelude, and a counselor or camp instructor provides keyboard accompaniment for hymns and service music.

Messiah Sing

While our late-December Messiah Sing has taken a hiatus during the pandemic, we hope for it to return soon to fill the church again with more music as has for more than 50 years!

Unfortunately there will be no Messiah sing in 2022.
