Mass Choir
MBC, we believe that every voice should offer praise and worship
to God and what better way to demonstrate this than through the Mass
Choir, a group of men and women whose very presence shows the power and
favor of God’s love. This group shares the longevity of God’s
faithfulness through traditional song. Styles range from rendering songs
reminiscent of Shirley Cesar and Dorothy Norwood to the spiritual
sounds of groups like Mom and Pop Winans. Rehearsals are on select Tuesdays and Thursdays at 7:00 pm.
Men of Metropolitan
BC is blessed to have a strong
and dedicated group of men who are committed to sharing God’s word
through traditional song. What an exciting time it is to see the choir
stands filled with men who are so vocal about the wondrous works of our
Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Whether it is a song led by a soloist
or two or three men, the Men’s Choir brings the experience of Jesus
Christ to life with their authentic sound, genuine storytelling and a
style that engages the congregation. It is not unusual for their
“personal testimonies” to shine through as they are offering thanks for
how God brought them over, through and to where they are today. The
congregation readily joins in with hand-clapping, hand-waving or “out
of your seat praise.” The Men of Metropolitan are regularly invited to
attend churches for special events such as Men’s Day, Church
Anniversaries. Rehearsal for the Men of Metropolitan is on Tuesday and
Thursday at 7:00 pm in under the direction of Dr. B. Dexter Allgood.
Women's Choir
Similar to the Men of Metro, the Women’s Choir is a strong and
committed group of MBC women who use traditional song and style to
share God’s word. Their soul-stirring songs often tug on the heart
strings of everyone. This “powerhouse” choir celebrates and demonstrates
how marvelous and excellent Jesus Christ is. The Women’s Choir will
either leave you teary-eyed or have you standing to your feet in
recognition of just how powerful the love of God is. Led by Doris
McNeil, Assistant Ministr of Music and Dr. Thelma Jones, Director, the
choir rehearsals Tuesday and Thursday nights at 7:00 pm. If you would
like to join the choir or get more information about how to be
involved, call 973-xxxx or click here.
Concert Choir
(by audition only), Mondays, 7-9:00 p.m
Majestic Voices
The best way to describe the Majestic Voices from the other MBC
choirs is that they use a mix of contemporary, traditional and popular
music to minister to God’s people. Comprised of men and women who
desire to share the power of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ through
song, the Majestic Voices genuinely show how the wounded, hurt and
rejected can be made whole again. Whether they are belting out a
popular song by one of today’s most celebrated Gospel singers, or they
are sharing a special story that reaches as far back to the days when
our grandparents were younger, the sentiment and purpose is the same:
they bring the lost to Christ and to re-unite or re-connect people to
Christ. Rehearsal for the Majestic Voices is on Tuesdays and Thursdays
at 7:00 pm and is under the direction of Kevin ___.
Praise Team
MBC Praise Team is comprised of a
small group of gifted singers who shere the word of God during eh
Praise and Worship Period. What sets them apart from the choirs at MBC
is the size. Their purpose, dedication and commitment remain the same:
to engage people in the Worship Service Experience by leading them to
God’s throne through song and music. The Praise Team sometimes acts as
the “leaders” of the Praise and Worship Period, often leading selected
songs, complemented by the choir. Members of the Praise Team are
selected based on singing tone, style, commitment and the ability to be
stretched to the full use of their spirituals gifts of singing. To
find out more about the Praise Team, contact Kevin ___ , title.
Youth Choirs
Buds of Promise
In Buds of Promise, children learn
praise and worship music and participate in fun games and activities
with their friends. Through these activities, they learn basic music
theory and grow to love the Lord through worshipping Him. Children
share the music they learn in worship services and events throughout
the year. Director: Doris McNeil, Assistant Minister of Music
