Children's Choirs
Our Children's Music program includes children in preschool through fifth grade. They sing in the worship services periodically throughout the year and at special occasions. They also present musicals in the fall during the Live Nativity and in the spring during Sunday services on Children's Day.
Children's Choirs meet each Wednesday during the school year from 5:30 - 6:30 pm. Classes will consist of two 30-minute lessons in music, art, dance, games, music theory, drama and instruments such as recorders, bells, chimes and boomwhackers.
Sunday Singers meet each Sunday during the school year during either the 8:15 or 11:05 worship service. There is also a Children's Chimes program which is open to kids in grades 3 - 5. This choir meets from 5:00 - 5:30 pm.
Children who have registered for the Children's Music Program may participate in the age-graded choirs on Wednesdays and/or participate in Sunday Singers. If you would like to register your child for choir, please complete the registration form and return it, along with the $20/child registration fee, to Music Ministry.
