Chorister Camp
Camp is open to all new and returning choristers actively participating in the 2024 fall chorister season.
We are kicking off our fall season this year with a Chorister Camp. This is not just for elementary age, but for every chorister entering K–12th grade to get a head start on the year - you can call it our preseason training. It will be a mix of all sorts of different musical activities, all supporting the health and growth of our group.
If you have been a part of one of our ensembles in the past, we need you and your skills back, especially now. If you haven't done this before, give it a try. We will train you and you will love it! It all starts July 15-19, 9am-12:30pm so mark your calendars. And Youth - don't wait! Request time off from work now!
You need to sing!
Do you realize that the Lord commands us to sing? (Psalm 30, Colossians 3, among many references) Singing is not optional for believers. Our Lord expects us to sing and even with skill as much as our gifts allow (Psalm 33).
We need warrior singers!
The theme of warfare and singing in scripture is a visible theme from King Jehosophat putting his singer soldiers at the front of the battle lines (2 Chronicles 20), to the Apostle Paul talking about fighting evil with songs from the Spirit (Ephesians 5). A singing heart is a heart at war with the work of the evil one and the power of sin.
You need to sing in the Chorister or Youth Ensemble!!
There aren’t many places where you are trained to sing with skill but also with fellow believers in a Christian environment. (Ephesians 5:19).
We need you to sing at St. Peter’s!
The cathedral hosts three services on a normal Sunday, including evensong, which is made up of a lot of music. We need singers to do the work that the Lord has commanded us to do.

Musical Benches Concert
Glenn Priest, Former Artist-in-Residence with the Boston Pops Orchestra will perform a piano duet concert with Chris Garven, Organist & Music Director.
Glenn Priest, former Artist-in-Residence at the Boston Pops and current Director of Worship at Fairhaven Church in Dayton, Ohio, and Chris Garven, Director of Music at St Peter’s Anglican Cathedral have performed together for over 25 years under the name “Musical Benches.” They feature great organ and piano music in an easy, engaging, and exciting way. This event will feature the great pipe organ and beautiful Steinways of St Peter’s. The evening will culminate with the famed Choral Fantasy, which is a 25-minute, single-movement piano concerto with a choir. This is sort of a mini Ninth Symphony, composed earlier in Beethoven’s life featuring the full forces of orchestra, piano, and choir!
Chorister Christmas Evensong
Join us for a Chorister Evensong! Choristers of all ages will sing a special Christmas prelude prior to Evensong. This is a great event for the entire family to enjoy!
St. Peter's Anniversary Celebration and Cookout
Join us for ONE SERVICE at 10AM, followed by a (quick!) tour of the Cathedral spaces ending on the North Lawn for burgers, hot dogs, drinks, games, and fellowship!
What are we exploring?
Get to know Cathedral Staff and where they work, along with ALL that really happens in each space. It’s probably more than you think!
What are we celebrating?
St. Peter’s is 17! But more importantly, God has done incredible things through the ministry of St. Peter’s over the last seventeen years. Yes, there have been challenging moments, but God has been gracious to us and continued to impact each of us and those around us!
What are we looking forward to?
The future (obviously)! We have big ideas for how God might continue to use St. Peter’s to expand the Kingdom of Heaven and impact our community and world with the transforming love of Jesus Christ!
