Children's Choirs for grades 1-6 meet Sunday at 6:00 PM. We currently have close to 200 children involved in our 4 choirs. The 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.
The CHERUB CHOIR is our 1st grade boys and girls. Their involvement in services is limited so that emphasis can be made on basic music and vocal skills. This choir enjoys lots of movement and interacts with materials such as bean bags, scarves and percussion instruments.
The HOSANNA CHOIR is for boys and girls in 2nd and 3rd grades. They fully participate in worship services and concerts but still have weekly opportunity to learn through movement and games.
The ALLELUIA CHOIR is open to all 4th-6th grade girls. They enjoy spending time with one another while working hard to grow in music reading abilities and perfecting a unified tone.
As the name implies, the BOYS CHOIR is made up of our oldest boys, the 4th-6th graders. With an all male staff, they enjoy lots of extra “boys stuff”, like attending sporting events and playing in the gym after a great night of rehearsing.
