Our Aim

It is our desire that each child experiences Christ's love in our choirs and that our choirs will be an outreach ministry.  Children's choirs are a wonderful opportunity for training in technical musicianship as well as learning to be worship leaders.  Performance is not our primary goal, as we are focusing on learning to experience music and worship.  As a child's age increases, more opportunity will be available for singing as worship leaders.  When we do sing in worship, we ask you to help us teach our children what worship is about by stressing the worship and leadership.

Worship and Performance Opportunities

Three Year Olds will not sing in worship, but enjoy music weekly in their classroom.  Parents will be invited to attend a demonstration class.

Music Time 4's-5's and Music Makers (1st-3rd grades) will have several opportunities to sing in worship as well as mission opportunities throughout the year.

Young Musicians (4th-6th Grades) will sing in worship and The Singing Christmas Tree.  Children are expected to attend at least 75% of  rehearsals (10 out of 13 rehearsals), August 26 - November 15 to participate in The Singing Christmas Tree.

Passport to Adventure
Hymns & Bible Verses

A hymn/chorus and scripture verse will be featured each month in Children's Choirs.  Hymns are a vital part of our Christian heritage, and instill within us praise, doctrine, commitment and hope.  Scripture memorization will encourage children to have a desire for God's Word, know God's Grace, and to build a life with Jesus.

Each verse has been designated by age. We encourage you to track your child's memorization in God's Word as a family and to find the blessing of memorizing together!

Your child may sing or recite to a choir teacher at any time during the choir year.  Children who complete all memorization requirements will be recognized at the end of the choir year.

See the listing of Memory Verses and Hymns below.
