Chapel Musical Talent Continues to Flourish
Posted December 5, 2019

Over the twenty years that the Chapel has been in existence, there have been many members who have emerged to contribute their exceptional musical talent.  The talent group contains musicians, soloists, quartets, trios, duos, bell ringers and ensembles.  Not to be slighted and without saying is our outstanding choir led by Tom Reedy, along with pianist Paula Carpenter and new organist Esther. This gathering of talent in White Bluff Chapel is consistently rewarded with a round of applause or murmurs of “Amen.”

The latest talent to emerge was Debbie Hammer.  Debbie provides support to the choir by way of her magical flute, and she is also lending her hand in the bell choir.  Debbie is a graduate of Baylor University and was a member of The Golden Wave Marching Band.

Now the watch is on for the next member to step up and display their musical talent.

Chapel Choir Brings Christmas Cheer to WB Homes
Posted December 5, 2019

Each December, the WB Chapel choir holds their annual Christmas party, an event which features three different phases of mirth-sharing. The main feature of the evening is that of reaching out to the community with their Christmas caroling.  About forty choir members typically show up for the event and then split into several small groups as they are dispersed to the various venues that they are assigned to. Besides having several groups caroling at the homes of White Bluff residents who are limited in how much they can get out, there are also some carolers who forge out into Whitney to Town Hall Estates and the Country Club Retirement Center, bringing joy to all they encounter.

This year the event took place on Monday evening, Dec. 2. According to tradition, it began with the hors-d’oeuvres phase of the party for the first hour. Then the small break-out groups took to the cars, venturing out to their assigned venues where they shared Christmas carols with the members of the community. Once all return to Fellowship Hall, the cold and hungry carolers dive into the array of scrumptious desserts and then present their Christmas gifts to Director Tom Reedy and the accompanists, Paula Carpenter and Donna Spotts. This year, since Donna has recently moved, her gift will be delivered by mail.

One of the highlights of the evening is the taking of the group photo, which is always a circus in itself. Paul Carpenter got roped into wielding the camera this year, while Karen Williams took on the impossible task of lassoing in the riotous group.

Additional photos taken while caroling at the various homes will be made available in time to include in the next issue of the website. Watch for those in two weeks!
