  All About Children's Choirs 
at FUMC

 
Register here for Children's Choir for 2012-2013.
All choirs rehearse on Wednesday evenings from 6:15-7:00,
directly following Wednesday Night Supper.
Rehearsals begin Aug. 22, and run through April, except for during school breaks.
You can access our entire fall calendar here.
This year we will be using a brand new curriculum called Growing in Grace.
Come grow with us!

Our performances
 
All choirs sing on Sunday 2-3 times throughout the year, either in First Place or 11:00 Traditional.  They will all participate in the Hanging of the Greens service at Christmas, in conjunction with the Youth Choir, and will present a spring concert together in April.  Additionally, the Young Musicians present a musical as part of the Spring Concert.  You can find the fall calendar here.

Why sing in Children's Choir?

  • Because we memorize scripture through songs. That's a gift that will bless your child his or her entire life.   

  • Because music speaks to the hearts and souls of children. They love to praise God in song!

  • Because children gain a sense of accomplishment when serving their church as worship leaders.

  • Because beautiful music leads to great friendships, and children who have friends at church are more likely to see themselves as a part of the family of God.
