The Joyful Noise is a group of singers singing for Jesus. We sing good old familiar songs with a folk gospel feel.

Any and all are welcome to come to our meetings. Mostly we sing. All you need is your voice. You do not need experience, training, talent, or skill. We are here to make a joyfiul noise, not to judge skills.
