Music is important in the life and ministry of Christ Evangelical Lutheran Church. Our principal worship resource is Evangelical Lutheran Worship, but in using numerous settings of the Holy Communion, we also employ With One Voice and Hymnal Supplement 1991. We sing two settings of Evening Prayer, Holden Village setting during Advent, and the traditional setting during Lent.
