Choir

Whether you're young or young at heart, a seasoned vocalist or just discovering your voice, there's a place for you here. We rehearse every Wednesday at 5:00pm. 

Our choir isn't just about singing; it's about creating a warm and supportive atmosphere where everyone can grow musically and personally. Rehearsals are filled with joy and camaraderie as we prepare to uplift our congregation during special church services throughout the year.

No audition is required—just a willingness to share your voice and be part of something special. We believe that every voice adds to the beauty of our worship, and we welcome you to join us in this enriching experience.

Come and discover the joy of singing with us. Whether you're a soprano, alto, tenor, or bass—or if you're not sure where your voice fits yet—there's a place for you in our choir. Join us this Wednesday and let's make music together!

Bemidji Food Shelf

The church's involvement in supporting the local food shelf is deeply rooted in our passion and mission to serve the community. Our commitment extends beyond mere donations; it encompasses active participation in organizing food drives, volunteering at distribution centers, and raising awareness about hunger issues. We rotate and take shifts to serve at the Bemidji Food Shelf on the second Monday and Friday of every month. 

Through these efforts, we strive to make a meaningful impact on the lives of individuals and families facing food shortages. This work is not just a responsibility, but a reflection of our faith in action, demonstrating our belief in caring for others as an integral part of our spiritual journey.
