Aquia Choristers
Aquia Episcopal Church offers a rich and diverse Music Ministry led by dedicated volunteers who enrich our worship services with their musical gifts.
In keeping with our historic church, music is selected from the diverse range of Episcopal and Anglican tradition and is organ-led every Sunday at the 10:30 AM service, at Evensong held at 5:00 PM on the second Sunday of each month and other special services throughout the year. Choral music is offered from the Sunday after Labor Day through Trinity Sunday.
We are always looking forward to meeting more musicians and interested parties are encouraged to contact our Director of Music at musicdirector@aquiachurch.org.

We currently offer two Choral Ensembles: the Gallery Choir open to adults and high-school age youth, and the Aquia Choristers, our dedicated Children’s Choir open to children between 3rd and 8th grade.
