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!

VIP - Cancelled for Today :-(

Voices In Praise's performance at the National Christmas Tree on Monday, Dec. 21 has been cancelled. There will be no rehearsals or other VIP activities today. :-(

We need to squeeze in a rehearsal before Christmas, so here's our latest game plan:
Wednesday, Dec. 23
3:15pm - 5pm: Rehearsal for all VIPs at church
5pm-5:30pm: Dinner at church
5:30pm-8:30pm: Sledding at Ken Reynolds' house

If Anne Arundel County Schools are open on Wednesday, we'll pick up singers from SMS and SHS. If Anne Arundel County Schools are closed on Wednesday, we'll ask singers to make their way to church for rehearsal at 3:15pm. Singers, if anyone needs a ride, just let Holly know.

There is a chance we'll get rescheduled to sing at the Tree after Christmas. The National Park Service has performances scheduled through Dec. 23 but the Tree is open until Jan. 1. We asked the Park Service if they'd consider allowing performances to take place from Dec. 26 - Jan. 1, given the unique circumstances. They're considering this request and will get back to us today or tomorrow.
