Come and sing with the choir! New singers are always welcome! From September through May, we lead the congregation in hymns of praise and thanksgiving to our Lord, lead the singing of liturgical music, provide cantors for worship, and sing a choir anthem every week. We also join with the Hand Bell Choir for several anthems during the year.
Join us for rehearsals on Sunday mornings at 8:30 a.m. in the music room. We will rehearse until 9:10 and sing from the balcony. Our repertoire ranges from Gregorian chant, gospel and arrangements of familiar hymn tunes.
The choir is directed by Mr. John Feken, who is also a member of the hand bell choir and serves as the organist/pianist for First Lutheran. Mr. Feken is a music teacher for the Indian Creek School District, currently teaching K-5 Elementary Music and previously 5-12 Band and Choir. He has also played euphonium with the Kishwaukee Concert Band and has been Music Director for several productions at StageCoach Players Theater in Dekalb.
