Each year Testament presents
special Advent and Christmas music for the church,
periodically performs musicals for the church and community,
provides musical leadership during Youth Sunday (a
student-led worship service), and present a concert of music
prepared for their yearly choir tour.
The "Castle and Canyon Tour" features several
of the students not only singing, but using their other
talents as well, from playing drums and guitar, to cello,
violin and sign language.
This year Testament will wrap up
their "Musical Mystery Tour" with a special
presentation of their tour repertoire at the 9:30 am and
11:00 am
services Sunday, July 4, 2004.
Several members of Testament helped
form the Junior High and Senior High
Student Ministries Praise Bands, using their vocal and
instrumental talents. As God would have them, they are now
playing a role in leading not only the early morning
traditional sanctuary service, but also Praise and Worship
for their fellow students at First Church.
Many former Testament members have gone
on to take part in their college choral programs, furthering
their musical talents. Others have moved on to join the
Chancel Choir.
In preparation for worship and other
events, the choir rehearses from 4:15 to 5:30 p.m. each
Sunday afternoon. Testament consists of 7th through
12th graders. |
