The Chancel Choir is the heart of our music ministry, leading the worship service in music and presenting anthems. Our choir is non-auditioned and open to anyone high school-age and up. If interested, please contact the Director of Sacred Arts about sharing your vocal gifts and talents. Join us in praise and worship through song! 
 

Providing music for worship is one of the most spiritually meaningful and rewarding forms of ministry here at Wesley. Our Sacred Arts programs often weave together, creating a multi-faceted gem of discipleship and mission activity which touches hearts and lives, with or without lyrics. We strive for quality in our programs to enhance individual and corporate worship, with the ultimate goal of leading people to Christ, through music. We direct, coach, and teach our ensemble members to expect to grow in musicality and vocal strength, realizing each individual's unique music potential. Here at Wesley, we believe wholeheartedly that, "All God's children have a place in the choir!" You belong with us at Wesley!

Realistically, we know that even though everyone may enjoy listening to music, not everyone wants to sing in the choir. Therefore, we encourage your participation in areas of music that are not limited to singing!

We offer Sacred Arts programming for visual arts, (art exhibits) dramatic arts, (reeinactments, musicals and monologues) interpretive dance, as well as instrumental music. The choir(s) perform anthems each Sunday, with additional seasonal and thematic multi-generational programs throughout the year.

Wesley is the face of classical music in the Golden Isles and is a favorite venue for weddings and performing arts groups i.e., the Coastal Symphony and Golden Isles Live, and our own Artist Series: The Sally Weston Hawie Artist Series which brings in performing groups for worship concerts five to six times a year. Admission to all SWH concerts presented by Wesley are free of charge. Check the websites of The Coastal Symphony and Golden Isles Live for their ticket and membership information. For symphony tickets, go to coastalsymphonyofgeorgia.org.
