- “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.” (Colossians 3:16, NIV)
The first instance of singing in Scripture is Exodus 15, as the people of Israel sing of victory and praise after God led them out of Egypt. References to songs of praise, contrition, supplication, and thanksgiving are made throughout both the Old and New Testaments. We are made to know that the praise of God in song is an eternal activity of those who love Him. So, the choirs of The Co-op City Baptist Church are committed to meet the need for sacred music during our services. Music helps to set the spiritual mood for worship, for the Preacher’s sermon, for giving our tithes and offerings, for benediction, even for going home services. Choirs serve at all services, and attends the pastor as he goes out to preach, as well. Each member, of each choir has committed to be prepared by faithfully attending, on time, his/her assigned date for rehearsal, studying the songs of Zion, and practicing under the leadership of The Minister of Music. The choral ministry of The Co-op City Baptist Church is made up of:
- The Mass Choir (1st Sunday)
- The Inspirational Choir (2nd & 3rd Sunday)
- The Youth/Young Adult Choir (4th Sunday)
- The Senior Choir (5th Sunday)
- The Men’s Chorus (5th Sunday)
- The Sunrise Choir (each Sunday @ 8:00 a.m.)
