Advent/Christmas Music

We have a very exciting season of music coming up – a combination of some IUCC staples (Lord, Before This Fleeting Season, Where Riches Is Everlasting, and others) and wonderful new music that we will learn and perform during Advent and Christmastide. All are welcome to join us for some or all of this  music. Please SIGN UP here to indicate your availability. This will also help ensure there is enough music for everyone who wants to join us.

Christmas Eve Festival Choir

All ages & voices are invited to lend your voice to our Christmas Eve Festival Choir. Join us for traditional hymns and anthems.

We will be working on the music throughout the Advent season. Special Christmas-Eve only rehearsals on 12/22 and 12/24 at 7PM. Please sign up here to indicate your participation.

Will Todd residency - Community Choir Opportunity

Will Todd returns to Immanuel in December for the premiere of his latest carol, “In This Wondrous Burst of Starlight,” written for Vox Philia. As part of the concert, we want to form a community choir to perform three of his works, led by Will! Adults/more experienced singers would sing “I am changed,” and younger singers would perform “Lighting the Way.” Everyone is invited to participate in the festive “Bring Light” to end the program. Music will be provided, and we will hold two rehearsals before Will is with us, dates and times are December 10, 2:15-3:00 pm and December 11, 4-4:45 pm. The dress rehearsal with Will is on December 17, with adults at 2:30 pm and young folk at 3:00 pm. 

If interested, please email Stephen Longenecker at music@immanuel-ucc.org to register and get digital copies of the music. 

Help Immanuel kick off the Christmas season with our Crafting our Way to Christmas Event! Previously known as the "Advent Event", Crafting to Christmas will feature crafts for adults and kids of all ages, music and a lesson, a preschool story room, snacks, cookie decorating, advent wreath-making, and so much more! Join us on Sunday, November 27th, beginning at 10:15am in the Fellowship Hall. We can't wait to see you there! Contact Kelly Barnett (barnettkellym@gmail.com) with any questions or for more information if you'd like to help prepare for this event.
