Lakewood First United Methodist has an exciting music program with many opportunities for our members, friends and guests to worship, serve and explore their musical gifts.
Our adult choir, Joyful Noise, leads worship with a mixture of traditional and contemporary anthems and praise music. This is a traditional SATB (soprano, alto, tenor, bass) choir led by Jackie Beery, our Director of Music. The choir is accompanied by our organist/accompanist, Hani Yang and our staff instrumentalist, Greg Paxton. Joyful Noise rehearses on Thursday nights from 7:30pm to 9:00pm between September and June and is always open to new members. Check out the “Church Staff” page under the “Directory” link.
Our steel drum band, Lakewood Steel, plays a variety of sacred tunes arranged for the band by our Steel Drum Director, David Beery. Check out the “Steel Drum Band Ministry” page for more information.
Our children’s choir, Joyful Noise 2, practices every Sunday during Children’s Church and sings during the service on every 4th Sunday of the month. This group is lead by our Children’s Church leaders, Margie Mitchell and Tina Grabowski. Children’s Church and Joyful Noise 2 are open to any and all kids from 4 – 12 years old.
