Choir Director
|
Mary Wood Perry has served as Choir Director at Flint Hill UMC since May of 2003. She and her husband, Wiley, returned to her childhood home in 2001 when she retired from the University of Alabama at Birmingham where she had worked for 27 years, most recently serving as Director of Administrative Affairs in the Office of Development. After childhood piano lessons and high school band, Mary studied music at Birmingham-Southern College and at UAB and sang alto in choirs in college and in several Birmingham churches, but had never directed before the opportunity arose at Flint Hill. Mary enjoys selecting and programming the service music using an eclectic mix of familiar hymns and newer praise choruses. She describes the choir as “a wonderful group of dedicated and hard-working people who have a common desire to make music an integral part of the worship experience.” Under her leadership, the choir has grown and now averages around 25 members at Sunday morning services.
