PRAISE THROUGH MUSIC“When in our music God is glorified and adoration leaves no room for pride. It is as though the whole creation cried: Alleluia, alleluia, alleluia!” The words of this hymn best reflect Faith’s music program and the spirit of our Music Director, Karen M. Jirsa. Music is very important at Faith. We are blessed with an abundance of musical talent. Under Karen’s direction, the adult and children’s vocal and hand bell choirs celebrate God’s love and grace through music at traditional and blended services throughout the year. Karen has served as Music Director at Faith since 1996. Prior to Faith, she was the Music Director at St. Paul Lutheran Church in Skokie and at St. Paul Lutheran Church in Mt. Prospect. Karen has a Bachelor’s degree in Music Education from Concordia University and a Master of Science and Education degree with an emphasis in Music Education and Choral Conducting from the University of Illinois. In addition to her role at Faith, Karen teaches seventh and eighth grade music and directs the Concert Choir at Woodland Middle School in Gurnee.
