MUSIC
The music featured at Westminster United Church is vibrant, eclectic, and joyful.
Facilitated by our Music Director Nancy Dettbarn, our services are enhanced with a surprising blend of beloved and topical hymns, classical masterpieces, contemporary songs, guest artists, young performers, and musical groups. We welcome you to enjoy the music and to come and take part in rehearsals, supportive fellowship, and making a joyful noise!
Come Worship with Us

Spirit Band
Spirit Band is a “Praise Style” band with instruments and vocals providing an alternative style of music. The mandate of the band is to “Make a Joyful Noise to the Lord”. The purpose of the band is to be accepting of each other’s gifts and talents, to experience growth, and share our music ministry with our church and community. We encourage everyone to “Catch the Spirit”. Please contact Lynne at (519) 941-4334 or the church office.
Day By Day
Day By Day: The group was not part of the original umbrella of Westminster but formed by 3 people who wanted to create music, sing & harmonize together, perform in the community at churches and at nursing homes. However, since 2015, the group has found its home within Westminster and is supported by the church.
Bassically Sound
Bassically Sound: Consisting of two couples, the group has been singing as a quartet for over 20 years. They have enjoyed performing for Westminster as well as weddings, festivals, and community events. Singing from the bass clef (hence the name) they perform a wide variety of music and also enjoy traveling and eating together. For further information, please contact Bob Borden at bobborden1299@gmail.com.
The Westminstrels
The Westminstrels is a male choir that meets periodically (particularly for Father’s Day Service) for fellowship and spirited musical showcases. Please contact Nancy at ndettbarn@westminsterorangeville.ca or call the church office.
