Waukon High School Choir 2025 Tour of Churches scheduled for December 7

The Waukon High School Choir, under the direction of Molly Woodard, will be sharing its music with area churches during its 30th Annual Christmas Church Tour Sunday, December 7, according to the following schedule:

St. John’s Lutheran 8:30-8:45 a.m.
Old West Paint Creek Lutheran 9:00-9:15 a.m.
First Presbyterian 9:30-9:45 a.m.
First Baptist 10:00-10:15 a.m.
Zalmona Presbyterian 10:30-10:45 a.m.
St. Patrick Catholic 11:00-11:15 a.m.
St. Paul’s Methodist 11:30-11:45 a.m.

The choir sings at seven churches each year. Those churches are selected based on church proximity to the high school, accessibility for school buses, the physical size of the church, the membership size of the congregation, and whether the worship service is broadcast. The Annual Tour allows choir members to serve the community by singing several pieces of music at various congregations during the Advent season. Their trip also acts as a “preview” for the High School Band and Vocal Winter Concert scheduled for Monday, December 15 this year.

At each stop, the choir takes a freewill offering for local missions. This year’s offering will be split between the Allamakee County Relief Office, Allamakee County Food Shelf and Northeast Iowa Community Action.

If bad weather prevents safe travel, a cancellation announcement will be made through the usual school-closing channels, and the tour will not be rescheduled.
