The choir is preparing for their pilgrimage to England in July. As part of their preparations, they are singing Evensong services every Wednesday between now and July 16, 7:00 to 7:30 p.m. in the church.

In England, they will be singing 10 choral services in 8 days. Please come and show your support! Enter through the Tower Door off Main Street.

*These times are during the school year. We will start Choristers/Instrumentalists back up in the fall. If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to Mattilda!

The Good Shepherd Choir applied and was granted a one-week choral residency at Wells Cathedral in England for July 18-28, 2025. Wells has one of the oldest and most respected choral foundations in England, so it is a great honor that our application and recording were approved. While in England, our choir will sing for daily services in place of the Wells choirs who will be away for a summer break.

Our choir will also sing three Sunday services at the Church of St. Mary Redcliffe in Bristol, one of the oldest and most beautiful churches in Europe. Our choir director, Mattilda, was the Organ Scholar at St. Mary Redcliffe, and at the nearby Bristol Cathedral, exactly twenty years ago.
