Music & the Arts Ministries in Our Hartford Church
Music at Immanuel
One of the cornerstones of Immanuel is its Music Ministry. Hymns, anthems, organ and service music are interwoven throughout worship, deepening our relationship with God and each other. With a wide variety of musical styles and traditions, Immanuel opens the doors of welcome with song.
The Immanuel Chancel Choir
The Immanuel Chancel Choir enriches each worship service with a diverse offering of music, blending scripture and poetry with the spirit of warmth and community. A family comprised of all ages and backgrounds, the Chancel Choir is a safe place for artistic growth and expression. Our Director of Music, Mark Singleton, and our Organist, Stephen Scarlato, guide and shape the beautiful sounds that voices can raise.
The Chancel Choir rehearses each Thursday evening, and on Sunday morning before worship. If you would like more information please contact Mark Singleton at singletonmark@hotmail.com.
Worship Services
While each Sunday is blessed with inspiring music, there are also a number of special services throughout the year that feature Immanuel’s Music Ministry. Hallmarks include Rally Sunday, Lessons & Carols and our children’s Christmas Pageant, as well as a prominent presence each Christmas Eve, Maundy Thursday and Easter Sunday. Join us and be drawn into the life-giving presence of God through music.
The Arts
Immanuel has been and continues to be blessed with artists from both within our church, the Greater Hartford community and beyond. We know that the spirit of God moves through all of us in very special ways, and so we enjoy making these artistic expressions apparent in our Immanuel life.
Visit our Fellowship Hall on any given day and you’ll likely see a themed exhibit of beautiful paintings or photography. Starting in January of 2024 the photographic work of Candace Low will be on exhibit.
Dancers have been seen and enjoyed in the aisles on a Sunday!
Once a year, Immanuel holds an auction, featuring the multi-faceted work and services of our Immanuelites.
We have been “home” to many individual and group artists, and we are proud to be a source of Music and Arts in the Hartford area!
