Grace Presbyterian Church of Springfield Virginia seeks a handbell director for our 5-Octave handbell choir, the Joyful Ringers. The director will plan and lead weekly rehearsals from September to May, currently scheduled for Monday evenings at 7 pm.

The bells assist in worship on an average of one Sunday per month (excluding summer) including special occasions (Christmas Cantata, Easter). The bells have also traditionally performed one annual concert (outside the context of weekly worship) using pieces that they have prepared over the course of the weekly rehearsals.

In addition to selecting and directing skill-appropriate pieces, the director will work with our Music Director and Pastors to plan the bell choir’s participation in worship.

Advertised pay for the position is $4000 annually, paid in twice monthly installments.

Documentation of Covid-19 vaccination and booster is a requirement for the position.

Interested applicants may contact our music director, Scott Seifried (sseifried@yahoo.com) or our head of staff, Ben Trawick (ben@gracepresby.org) with a resume.
