FAME CHOIR

 

"We are one in Christ Jesus and that's the reason why we sing."

 

If you love to sing and you love Jesus… you will love singing with FAME Choir!

Our calling is to offer a music ministry worthy of His name, and we welcome you to join us.

 

HISTORY

FAME Choir was organized by Celia Square and Rovan Stanley in 1971 under the leadership of Rev. Cecil Murray.  Celia and Rovan had a vision of bringing together many people from the faith community, regardless of denomination, to sing praises unto the Lord.  They were not as concerned about religious affiliation as they were about a person’s love for Christ and their desire to express that love through songs.

 

Today, FAME Choir’s vision remains simply the same; people singing together for the glorification of God the Father and Christ our Savior through song.  God has loved us and we have loved each other enough to stay together for 34 years.  We look forward to continuing our ministry and our spiritual relationships with each other, our FAME Church family and our community.

 

PURPOSE

FAME Choir sings with this thought in mind:  To proclaim boldly and uplift the Name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, in praise and song. We believe that we are uniquely gifted by God to do the work of music ministry. We acknowledge that our musical gifts and all our blessings come from God. We serve out of a sense of great love and gratitude to God the Father, for who He is and all He has done.
