Greece Baptist Church of Rochester, New York

What We Do ~ Music Ministry

Attending Greece Baptist Church provides you with a rich musical experience.

We are truly blessed to have a vibrant music ministry composed of many elements. Music Director John Montgomery and Organist Bruce Beardsley, have expanded our music offerings to incorporate a tapestry of music throughout our church life. Rather than choosing one type of music over another, we have a successfully blended music program. The ministry contains the following elements:

Church Choir - Comprised of church members who love to sing, this group sings in nearly every church service. Either using the hymnal or choral arrangements, they provide a base of traditional music as well as folk and modern interpretations. Holidays bring special music such as cantatas and guest musicians from all over the Rochester area who supplement our core ensemble.

Children's Choir - The children are given music instruction weekly with the knowledge that we are using our talents for God. Their performances in the service are not reserved for special occasions but are included as an integral portion of the music experience.

Bell Choir - In addition to a full pipe organ and concert piano, the church supports a bell choir which performs monthly. The warmth of the bells always adds depth to our service.

Youth Bell Choir - Our newest ensemble, started in 2009, is our Youth Bell Choir. The youth bell choir has their own set of color-coded bells and sheet music designed for youth who may not have previous musical experience.

Joyful Noise - Our praise band has been in existence now for over a decade. It has become a core element of our Sunday worship experience bringing the sounds of contemporary Christian music into the life of the church.
