Welcome to the United Church of Sun City
Choir
Our chancel choir has approximately 10 to 20 singers, depending on the time of year, and our anthems vary from classical through contemporary in style.
We have a vibrant and talent-filled music program at United Church of Sun City
The mission of our program is to provide music that enhances the liturgy and enables our congregation to pray twice through the music. When our organist first came she told our minister of music that her job was to "take the congregation to the throne of God every week."

Minister of Music Alan Paulson brings over 40 years of successful music director experience in Christian Churches, public schools, performance choirs and community colleges to our Church. Alan earned his Masters in Choral Music Conducting at ASU and continues expanding his trade by taking courses to maintain his certifications.
Happy May and Welcome Summer from your Music Ministry!
We hope your worship experiences were enhanced by our musical offerings during a very busy April! I was so impressed and proud of my team members’ efforts, talents, and dedication through our Cantata Sunday, Easter morning services and our Holy Humor Sunday! (It’s not easy to find funny church music!)
We even had an Italian opera singer, Tony Milioto direct from Italy!
May brings the end of our CHOIR’s season, with church performances on May 3, and May 17. They are a small, but mighty group, with so much talent and dedication. They continue to impress me and bless all of us with their expressive singing every time they use their God-given talents in a church service!
Next time you see one of these faithful (and faith-filled) CHOIR members, please let them know that you appreciate their efforts:
Ellyn Mae Ullman, Elizabeth Burke, Kira Funk, Boni Locke, Linda Zimmerman, Marsha Peek, Ann Davis, Andrea Dixon, Brenda Goodenberger, Beth Vercouteren, Ginger Dawson, Michael Nanney, Lester Atkinson, Dwight Brown and Greg Yagi.
We are also very dependent upon, and very blessed to have our amazing accompanist, Beverly Fletcher, who can play any song in any key, even better than the composer wrote it! And Thank you to Floyd Ellison for providing flawless prayer response music every Sunday! Fortunately, we also have our dedicated Praise Team to provide inspiring, uplifting music through the long, hot summer! We are grateful for those of you who will be staying with us! Any requests? Please let us know.
God Bless You,
Alan Paulson
Minister of Music
