An important aspect of the Christian educational program at MUMC is the opportunity for children to sing in a special choir. The Joyful Notes sing for worship services and for other occasions. They learn many church hymns and participate in the annual Advent Dinner Concert and Pops Concert. The enjoyment and training children receive from participation in this group is evident in their enthusiastic performances. While many persons participate in one of the music groups at MUMC, others show their support and involvement in a variety of ways.
Some persons choose to make special financial donations to assist particular aspects of the program.
Such contributions may be for Music at Memorial Concert Series sponsorships, for hiring instrumentalists to supplement choir music, for funding Memorial Choir section leaders, for providing for the purchase of music through the Dorothy Lee Music Fund, for providing non-budgeted equipment, or for providing for particular Joyful Notes or Memorial Ringers needs. In addition to financial gifts, persons may support the music program by assisting with Joyful Notes activities or by helping at concerts.
