School Choir
The school choir consists of all the children in the Pre-school and Kindergarten classes. They will be singing at least three times in Sunday Church Services throughout the year.
The Senior Choir is comprised of all ages from young adults to mature adults. During the months of September through May we meet every Wednesday evening from 7pm to 8pm to practice. The choir performs the third Sunday of each month and on special holidays. Anyone wishing to make a joyful noise unto the Lord is welcome!

Pricilla Bible Study
The Pricilla Bible Study group of Immanuel Lutheran Women's Missionary League meet on the second Tuesday of each month at 10am in the homes of the individual members.
The ladies enjoy coffee and goodies while discussing bible topic studies from the LWML quarterly book.
Our goal is to learn more about God's word to help us cope with everyday problems of life. Also, to share the word of God by telling others of His great love for all people.
We support the International LWML in theirc 'round the world mission projects with our "mite" offerings. An offering is also taken for the local LWML which is used at Christmastime for gifts to needy organizations, also to supply devotional materials, altar candles, and other things needed to carry out our mission as Lutheran women serving our Lord.

we may face life with courage and confidence that God
will walk with us through all the times of our
life.

guilt.
-That we may rejoice in God's abundant
forgiveness through Christ Jesus' death and
resurrection.
-That we may share our faith with
those around us.

Everyone should be involved in one or more of these Bible studies throughout the week as God has commanded in Col.3:16 Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly as you teach and admonish one another with all wisdom, and as you sing psalms, hymns and spiritual songs with gratitude in your hearts to God.
