Welcome! Voices In Praise exists for the glory of God and in service to others. As the youth choir of Friendship United Methodist Church, the group is open to all youth in grades 6 -12 who have a desire to sing and a willingness to make the commitment to the group. Singers are not required to be a member of the church or to have any background in singing. Our doors are open to everyone!

The choir rehearses on Mondays. Girls rehearse from 6:30pm – 8pm; Guys rehearse from 7pm – 8:30pm.

New singers are welcome any time. Feel free to contact Director Holly Reynolds Lee at 301-728-1748 with questions!

Hanging with the Boys

We were short on sopranos in Middle School VIP on Monday night, but because my responsible, faithful, and wonderful singers (flattery gets you somewhere, right?) told me about their absences in advance, Brie and I were able to tweak our rehearsal plans. (How we love advance notice!) We asked the 3 remaining sopranos to skip Middle School rehearsal, and we ran sectionals -- me with the tenors and basses, and Brie with the altos.

It was so fun to work with these young guys! They're great singers and what's kind of surprising is how strong their voices are. These guys are not afraid to sing out! I appreciate their gusto, their goofiness, and they way they crack me up.
