Children's Music

 
 
**Children's choirs do not meet in the summer months.  Choirs will resume in the fall with an ice-cream kickoff party on September 11, 2011 at 5:00 PM in the Great Hall.
 

What We're All About

 
Our choir program relies on a variety of sacred music to present the story of Christ and offer an understanding of music.
 
Participation in choir also develops habits of discipleship and service that can sustain their Christian service throughout their lives. Musically, we endeavor to provide singers with a variety of learning experiences that will equip them with the skill, interest, and desire to use their voices in praise to God.
 
For more information about the Children's Choir program, please contact Cindy Salter, Director of Children's Music.
 

Who Can Join? 

 
Our children's choirs are open to all children from K-6 grade.
 
 

What Will We Do?

 
Choir member participate monthly in worship services in both the Sanctuary  and Celebration worship service by presenting prepared anthems
