Music Ministries

Music has long been a part of the rich history and program ministry of Beymer Memorial United Methodist Church.  In addition to supporting and enriching the services of worship of this congregation, music at Beymer is viewed as a gift to be shared with the community.  

 Opportunities for musical education, participation, and involvement are available for ages 4 through adults in a number of church choirs, ensembles and music learning environments

Sanctuary Choir -- The choir rehearses every Wednesday evening from 7:15-8:45 p.m. (Sept.-May) and sings every Sunday at the 10:30 worship service. Senior highs and adults are cordially invited. We sing music from classical to contemporary and everything in between. We also present a cantata every Advent season during the 10:30 service.  If you are interested or have any questions, please contact Cindy Selph.

Beymer Bronze – This handbell choir rehearses every Monday evening from 7:00-8:00 p.m.(Sept.-May) and plays one Sunday a month at the 10:30 service.  The church has 4 ½ octaves of Schulmerich handbells and 4 octaves of Malmark chimes.  Beymer Bronze has performed annually at the “Carols in the Park” in December and has participated in area festivals in the past.  For more information please contact our Music Director.

Beymer Children’s Choir – The children’s choir is part of the Wednesday evening Beymer BASH program.  The children rotate between, singing, chimes, Orff instruments, and piano instruction and games in the computer lab, and participate in worship on a regular basis.  Contact our Music Director if your child would like to be a part of this exciting music ministry.

Youth Bell Choir – This group is open to all youth 6^th-12^th grade and meets Monday evening from 6:00-6:45 p.m.  We prepare music for worship and will be accompanying the children during the Wednesday Advent worship service on December 3^rd.  Contact our Music Director for more information.

Beymer Brass - Beymer's newest addition to the total music program. Made up of youth and adults who are having fun learning hymns and anthems to share in Sunday worship services and other church events. Anyone who plays a brass instrument is invited to be a part of the group. Instrument ownership is not required, instruments can be acquired for use.
    Beymer Brass practices each Wednesday at 4:15 pm, just before Beymer BASH. Watch for more information about Beymer Brass. Contact our Music Director if you would like to join or would like more information.
