Children and Music
The following programs for children are in addition to the needs and opportunities that exist in our Children, Youth, Collegiate and Singles ministries. In addition, many of our Adult Bible School classes incorporate music into their regular meetings. Contact those area leaders to explore music-making in those settings.

 

 

CHILDREN'S MUSICAL REHEARSAL DETAILS:

Tights for dancers:  All tights will be ordered for the dancers and will be theirs to keep.  Please bring $5 (cash or check made out to College Church) by Sunday, April 20th to rehearsal and give to Mrs. Hollinger.  Leotards and skirts are being provided by the Church and will become part of the costuming that we have.

     

Extra Rehearsal:  The dancers are working hard and doing a great job.  We are able to have the girls try out their dances in the sanctuary April 13, 20, and 27.  This is essential in order for each dancer to understand the space they need to cover.  Because our time in the sanctuary is limited, we need to have the dancers come at 4:00 pm instead of 4:30 pm. 

Please see the revised schedule below.

God's Children Sing is a learning program for Pre-kindergarten and Kindergarten children (generally aged 4 and 5 years old). Using Musikgarden principles, God's Children Sing teaches music and worship principles using Bible stories and songs in a small group, highly interactive setting. Registration is required, and a nominal fee is charged. The program meets during the Sunday evening service hour (6:00 PM Sunday).

Children's Choirs for grades 1-6 meet Sunday at 6:00 PM. Grade 1 boys and girls meet together in the Cherub Choir. The Hosanna Choir is comprised of boys and girls in grades 2-3. Grades 4-6 are divided, with the Alleluia Choir, comprised of girls, and the Boys Choir. These choirs sing occasionally in morning and evening services, and seasonally in Advent/Christmas programs and with a season-closing concert or musical. The Children's Choir program includes musicianship, hymn memorization, and instruction in worship.
