The Worship Choir
Our mission as a Worship Arts Ministry is to lead God’s people into His presence in worship and to cultivate lasting relationships with Jesus Christ.
Purpose Statement
We exist for these purposes: lead in worship and develop a relationship with our Savior, Jesus Christ. Our Worship Choir is truly a loving community made up of singers of all abilities who enjoy each other’s presence, encourages each other in our faith, and awaits with open arms to greet anyone who is willing to join us on our weekly journey. Our church has benefited from a choir composed of dedicated worship leaders who have served for, in some cases, decades. It is time for a fresh new generation to step up to the calling from God and join these faithful servants as together we lead God’s people in worship into the future.
How to be a singer in OUR Worship Choir
There are four expectations for participation in the Worship Choir:
1. Love the Lord;
2. Easily match pitch with others;
3. Committed to attending no less than 65% of rehearsals and Sundays;
4. Be a high school 10th grader and older.
Our Worship Choir is far more than just a group of singers who sing each week. We are a community. We love each other, work hard together as a team and care about what we do each week as worship leaders.
In the late summer, we begin work on our Christmas music for our annual Carols by Candlelight concerts presented in early December.
Please contact the Minister of Worship, James Kimmel, jkimmel@mariettafbc.org with any questions.

Rehearsal
Singers in the Worship Choir rehearse on Sunday afternoons from 2:00 until 3:30 in the Music Suite Rehearsal Room (Room 220). We meet to help us prepare our best for worship—and during that time, we have a great time of fellowship.
We encourage interested persons to meet with James Kimmel at 770.424.8326 ext. 116 or jkimmel@mariettafbc.org.
Worship Choir Singer Openings
There are always openings in the Worship Choir of First Baptist because we want individuals who have a gift of singing to be a part of our choir.
With that stated, however, we are in special need of adding men to our Worship Choir. To continue making the quality and type of music we enjoy, we seek to maintain a balance between the four vocal parts: Soprano (upper range ladies), Altos (lower range ladies), Tenors (upper range men), and Basses (lower range men).
