Our Music Team
Deb Mooney
As one of our Music Directors, Deb’s primary focus is the Adult Choir, and the Instrumental Ensemble, as well as working with individual musicians. Her whole family participates in the Music program, and she brings her passion for music performance to every occasion and practice! She has been associated with United Churches her whole life, firstly singing with her sister in Saskatchewan. She has been an active participant with her family in several of Naramata’s summer music programs. Deb has served for twenty plus years as a director of music at both Southminster-Steinhauer United Church in Edmonton and Deer Park United in Calgary.
Bonnie Berg
Bonnie Berg comes to choir directing via long years in the United Church working in Christian Education and many committees. With an elementary teaching degree as a music specialist along with an ARCT in piano teaching, retirement presented an opportunity to continue with her music interests. Music is an important ministry in our church and we offer music for all ages and stages. Along with Deb Mooney she shares in the regular Sunday Choir direction, and for those senior adults who wish to continue singing we offer the “Silvertones.” This is a great group of people who love to sing, and socialize together. We offer opportunities to sing in church and take our music to hospitals on occasion. We have expanded our talents by drumming and future endeavors could include some “upbeat” music for the 21st century! There is also a Men’s Chorus for all men who would like another challenge – and we always look forward to hearing the beautiful sound that men’s voices bring to our music ministry.
