Children's Choir
We’ve completed another season of choir and how we’ve grown! Combining Thursday afternoon choir and Sunday morning choir, we had a grand total of 31 children registered. We averaged between 12 and 24, when we sang for worship. We were gifted with an additional Orff xylophone, enabling more children to play at the same time — and they absolutely love it! We are currently hoping to add some additional quality rhythm instruments, as well.
Our usual choir rehearsal includes: gathering time, with a hands-on activity, learning anthems for wor-ship, using rhythm instruments, reading notation, movement activities and spiritual enrichment, as we discuss the meaning of the anthems we sing and how they relate to the Christian life. Children’s bells ( handchimes) follow the choir rehearsal, applying the above-mentioned activities.
We will begin rehearsals on Thursday, September 8 at 5:00 p.m. – 5:45 p.m. Children’s bells follow, from 5:45 p.m. – 6:00 p.m. All children, ages Pre-K through 2nd Grade may attend Thursday choir.Sunday morning choir rehearsal begins September 11, during the 9:30 Sunday School hour. This choir is open to ages 3rd Grade – 5th Grade.Both choirs combine to sing one Sunday a month for worship, as well as the 6:00 p.m. Christmas Eve Family Service.Please consider this opportunity to enrich your child’s musical experience and deepen your child’s faith dur-ing these formative years.
