Children's Choirs and Handbells
Children’s Choirs
Open to children ages 4 (by September 1, of the current academic year) to 5th Grade. These groups are organized by age/grade and meet on Wednesdays. Each group follows an age-appropriate music curriculum and sings in worship occasionally throughout the school year. New members are welcome!
Children’s choirs are a great place for children to learn about leading in worship, serving God and the Church, and fulfilling their call to offer their praise and worship to God. It is also a wonderful avenue for our children to develop a special group of friends who share in the common goal of making beautiful music.
