Warm light fell through stained glass and poured over a dozen singers, some still in their work clothes, as the Bigfork Summer Community Choir filled Community United Methodist Church with music Monday night.
The summer choir began June 10, resurrected after a near 23-year hiatus from the last Bigfork community choir.
“There aren’t a lot of churches that have choirs anymore, and there’s lots of reasons for that,” Community United pastor Wendy Ochs said. “People enjoy choir music and people love to sing, so we just thought it would be fun to give an opportunity for anyone in the community to be able to sing.”
