LAKEPORT, Calif. – For 49 years Jean Hill led the music ministry at the United Christian Parish.

After her retirement in June the church had a great many questions about its music program and where the future would lead them.

United Christian Parish is now pleased to announce the hiring of Rev. Diana Green as the interim choir director.

Rev. Green has directed several choirs since her first directing experience in 1960. She has even directed a musical (or two) and anytime she hasn’t been directing was delighted to sing in choirs.

She has a bachelor of science degree from the University of San Francisco and a master's of divinity from the Pacific School of Religion in Berkeley.

“Being part of church music has always been important in my life,” said Green. “I am excited to work with the UCP choir because it involves working with such a great group of people and gives me a chance to use my experience to help create worship to God.”

As the church begins this new chapter in its music program they would like to issue an invitation to men and women living in the Lakeport area, “Come make music with us!”

Adults of all ages and experience level are welcome. You do not need to read music to join the choir.

Rehearsals are Tuesdays at 7 p.m.

For more information call 707-263-4788 or come to a rehearsal.

United Christian Parish is located at 745 N. Brush St. in Lakeport.
