Music Ministry

Music is just one of the many ways we offer praise and thanksgiving to God. Want to learn more about the music ministry? Please email our director of music, Lorna Lee Curtis.

Ministry Updates

Due to COVID-19 restrictions, we have had to severely reduce Trinity’s music ministry. Our choirs are temporarily 'on hold.' However, it’s not all bad news, as our Saturday services are rather unique due to the revival of old Gospel songs, sung and played by various small groups.

We are grateful to all who generously give their time and talents to this ministry, and we look forward to a time when we can return to a full complement of musical praise. Thank you!

In our Lord’s Service,
The Rev. Dr. LornaLee Curtis (AKA Rocket)
Director of Music Ministry, Trinity Lutheran Church

About Lorna Lee “Rocket” Curtis

Who is Rocket? Me! Officially, I am the Reverend Dr. Lorna Lee Curtis, ordained United Methodist Church pastor, who has served as pastor to congregations in New Jersey, New York, Haiti, and South Carolina. I returned to my first vocation, music (doctorate from The Juilliard School), as a result of theological concerns with the Methodist church and my own spiritual journey back to Christian orthodoxy. In other words, let the gentlemen run everything, let's cling to the Word, as written, and let us not compromise with evil-doing and false shepherds within our churches. It is much more enjoyable to make music than run a church! (Pastor Dan agrees)

I am married to the Revereand A. Edward Sellers, Jr., retired Anglican priest, who served as rector to congregations in Rhode Island, Georgia, and Florida. He is also a retired Army chaplain. I call him Eddie, but I am the only one who calls him that. Ed is for the rest of the world. We love to travel, dance, hike, bike, drink ( French Bordeaux) and dine out, entertain, and generally, laugh, love, and enjoy the goodness of life together. Before my feet could reach the pedals, (at thirteen), I became organist and director of the senior choir at my home church. They were really desperate since the former organist had just run off with the church secretary and Christmas was right down the road. The senior choir, bless their hearts, taught me all the basics, in the years ahead. By college, I was worthy of being called choir director.

My nickname comes from Eddie. His choir of two grew to 27 in six months. He said that only a fired-up rocket with boundless energy and a scintillating personality could accomplish this. We own a farm, Summer Dreams, in Jacksonville, Alabama, and run a seasonal bed and breakfast. We have an adopted donkey, Marble, and two horses. Marble adores peppermint treats and crunches on them with his big, yellow teeth. He bats his long eyelashes at me when he wants more. Bella (Dumbbell is her real name, but we do not want to hurt her feelings) is best friends with Treasure, a gorgeous Tennessee Walker. The three of them run things at the farm. Now you know our story.
