 Chancel
Choir - Directed by: Betsy Bone, Accompanist: Bob Joyner
This ensemble is composed of adults and a smattering of youth who
enjoy singing sacred music of all types. We sing at the 11:00 worship
services, Maundy Thursday, sometimes Good Friday, and Christmas
Eve services, as well as our Advent Lessons and Carols service (8:30
and 11:00 on this Sunday). Our rehearsals are held on Thursday evenings,
7:15 - 9:00 p.m. (Most of the time we are done by 8:45) We welcome
any adults or youth to join our fun-loving musical family. It is
here that we join our voices together in a safe place and learn
how to sing beautifully God's praises.
 Sounds
of Praise - Directed by: Betsy Bone
Did you play an instrument when you were in high school and college?
Have you ever wished you could still play in an ensemble? This is
the group for you!! We have middle and senior high players along
with adults from all walks of life involved in this ensemble. We
rehearse on the second and fourth Sundays of the month and play
in both services on the first Sunday of the month. We accompany
the congregation on the hymns, and once a quarter we prepare an
Anthem or Offertory piece. If you have an instrument and want to
get your lips back in shape, come join us!
 Church
Organ - Played by: Bob Joyner
Wekiva Presbyterian Church is blessed to have a 3 manual, (keyboard)
Allen Renaissance Organ to lead us in worship each Sunday. It was
installed in January 2000, and Diane Bish gave the dedicatory recital.
The specification includes 63 stops (equal to about 75 pipe ranks).
The organ utilizes digital sampling which helps produce a bright
clear "pipe organ" sound even though there are no pipes.
We are often asked where the pipes are installed on our organ. It
is a great pleasure for Mr. Joyner, as well as substitute organists,
to play.
 Grace
Notes - Directed by: Joan Grace
The Grace Notes are an English Handbell choir and have been ringing
at Wekiva since 1987. They ring five octaves of Schulmerich Handbells
and three octaves of choir chimes. This group consists of twelve
adults who ring both services the second Sunday of each month. They
have also rung at weddings and various community affairs.

RaWB is a music group with singers and band members from 6th - 12th

This group of 20 - 25 youth enjoy playing and singing a wide range
of music from hymn tunes to modern Christian folk/pop/rock music.
This group leads worship one Sunday morning a month. Anyone in this
age range is welcome to come and be a part of this diverse group.
 Kids
Club Choir - Directed by: Aloma Bratek, Accompanist:
Bob Joyner
This energetic group consists of all elementary school age children
K - 5th grade. We gather every Wednesday from 4:45 - 5:30 following
the Kids Club recreation and bible study beginning at 3:30 p.m.
Our schedule follows the Seminole County School Calendar. The Kids
Club Choir sings on the first (11:00) and third (8:30) services
of the month. We also unite to share a Christmas musical during
the month of December. Our mission is to introduce the children
to Christian music and encourage them to make a "joyful noise".
All children are invited and welcome here to share their voices
with God.
