Karl Dietmeyer founded and conducts the Flute, Brass and Trombone Choirs, while David Beecher leads the Adult Choir and handbells. James C. Hagberg also conducts the choir for these Love Feasts. Soloists include Norman Roobol, Delee Rehak, Laura Dietmeyer, Ken Olander and Ashley Young.

The Moravian Church in the United States and the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America established a full-communion relationship in 1999. The agreement fully partnered the two churches, making possible sharing pastors, worship and ministries.

The Moravian Church was formed in 1457 by followers of Jan Hus. Over the next two centuries the church was nearly stamped out by wars and persecution. In 1722, Count Nicholas Zinzendorf invited Moravian faithful to form a community on his estate. Five years later at a Love Feast the church was renewed in a powerful way, and Love Feasts have been a Moravian distinctive ever since.
