The Sanctuary Choir has been an anchor for the music ministry of the Apostolic Church of God throughout the seventy-plus year history of the church. The music focus of the choir is centered on quality presentations of sacred music including anthems, gospel, hymns, and inspirational songs.
Under the leadership of the late Bishop Arthur M. Brazier, the choir established itself as a powerful presence in the revitalized South Shore/Woodlawn community and throughout the music ministry of the church and continues to do so under the leadership of our current pastor, Dr. Byron T. Brazier.
Notable performances include appearances at the Chicago Sinfonietta’s Martin Luther King celebrations at Symphony Center, Chicago’s Gospel Festival, Millennium Park Opening Festivities with the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, for inauguration ceremonies, and with the Czech National Symphony Orchestra in Prague, Czech Republic. The Sanctuary Choir has also appeared in concert with renowned artists Yolanda Adams, Kurt Carr, Maurette Brown Clark, Kirk Franklin, Gladys Knight, Dwayne Lee, Wynton Marsalis, Donnie McClurkin, Elizabeth Norman, Kirk Whalum, CeCe Winans, and the artists formerly known as Three Mo’ Tenors.
