MUSIC MINISTRY

Chancel Choir Rehearsal:  7:30 PM Every Thursday - Sanctuary (September through May). We are always looking for people to share their musical talent for special music at our 8:00 AM service.  We also have a chancel Choir that sings at the 10:15 AM service and the children's choir (The Little Choristers) who sing once a month at our 10:15 AM service.

Handbell Choir Rehearsal:  6:30 PM to 7:30 PM Every Thursday - Sanctuary (September through May).  The Handbell Choir is a mixed aged ensemble, with our emphasis on both challenges and fun, all to the glory of God!  We perform at our 10:15 AM church services, eight to ten times per year, and also enjoy participating in special events when the opportunity arises. Our specialty is lively church type music, played at a 2+ to 3 (medium) difficulty level-however, the only requirement for joining is enthusiasm (we'll teach you the rest!).  Come join our Handbell family! Contact David Rossetti at 838-6087.

Trinity Youth Group is a program put in place to inspire the youth of Trinity UCC to engage in activities not only throughout the church community, but in the Palmyra community as well.  The Trinity Youth Group uses contemporary styles of learning to keep the children of Trinity intrigued and on fire for the Lord.
