Atonement has a five-octave set of handbells; our handbell ringers play approximately one Sunday per month, and rehearse Tuesday nights from 6:30-8:00pm, September-May.
Participants will find the ensemble the most rewarding if they are able to read music and have some experience playing an instrument.

Liturgical Dancing
Dancing is another form of worship just like singing or playing an instrument. Through the use of rhythmical movements accompanied by sacred music, liturgical dancers add another level to the worship experience. Open to children through adults.
Visual Arts
Visual arts allow us to present the Gospel in a new way, and insights can often be gained by viewing familiar scriptures through a visual presentation.
Dramatic Arts
Dramas, dramatic monologues and skits allow us to present the Gospel in a different way, particularly during Advent and Lent midweek services. Insights can often be gained by viewing familiar scriptures through the prism of dramatic presentation.
