Praise Band!

The Praise Band

On Thursday, November 18th, the Praise Band returned with a couple of new faces, as well as some familiar ones. With two guitarists, one bassist, one pianist, and six singers, the group returned for the 2021-2022 school year and sang for the first time in this new school year, led by Mrs. Harris.  

Last year’s members; Jill McCall (vocals), Mallory McCall (electronic guitar), Noah Eden (acoustic guitar), and Natalie Eden (bass), returned excitedly to show off their talents and praise for God once again. Meanwhile, the new members; Emma Schumacher, Abby Rybka, Bella Perez, Rhianne Jenkins, Grace McDonald (all on vocals), and Annie Schaffer (piano), had fun learning the music and forming new bonds through it. To put it simply, the whole band was happy to embark on this new adventure and praise God in the best way they know how…music!  

Overall, the experience can be summed up by one simple quote from Natalie Eden: “It was really fun, and we sounded good. Plus, the songs were really cool!”. 

Check out the video of the band performing “Kings of Kings” (written by Chandler Moore) and “How Great Is Our God” (written by Chris Tomlin) on our Lutheran Westland YouTube channel!
