      Shepherd of the Hills Sanctuary Choir’s second virtual choir performance, Majesty  by Jack W Hayford and arranged by Jack Schrader,was presented to the congregation on the weekend on October 6 & 7, 2020. Over 30 choir members joined in this project. Thanks to Shirley Fiske for video editing. Audio editing by Ken Goodenberger, Music Director.

      On September 6, 2020, the music department of SHUMC presented this song: “Total Praise” by Richard Smallwood during our worship service. This was a labor of love on the part of many, as none of us had any experience with virtual choirs! But with God, all things are possible! Even virtual choirs! Over 20 members of our choir video recorded their parts of this song, and approximately 100 hours went into editing those videos together. (Thanks Shirley Fiske and Ken Goodenberger for editing) We are so grateful to God for His many gifts, and for allowing us to make music together after 6 months of Quarantine! Total Praise, indeed!
