“O God of rhyme and rhythm, of words and melody,
Creator, Lord and spirit who sings thru history,
Be with Your grateful people who celebrate today,
with instruments and voices,
to bring You praise always!”
Natalie Sleeth 1991

The Riverside Singers is a children's choir that meets each Wednesday night
from 4:15 - 4:45. The Riverside Ringers is a beginning handchime group
that meets each Wednesday from 4:45 - 5:15. Children who are not
members of RPC are welcome to join either group. The ages range from 5 -
13 years. The RPC handbell choir meets from 6:30 - 7:30 each Wednesday.
This multi-age group is also open to non-RPC members. The group
currently has about 15 members ranging in age from 8 years to the 70s.
The RPC Chancel Choir meets each Wednesday from 7:30 - 9 pm. The

Many members of all choirs do not know how to read notes. Music education
is a part of the learning experience. The RPC Choirs offer a chance to
become more deeply involved in the worship experience, share the joys of
Christian fellowship, and serve the church and community. For more
information, please contact Sally Sloane, Minister of Music at 447-1520 X 31
