Children's Choirs

Our Music Ministry sponsors a FREE choir program for children ages three through fifth grade that meets on Wednesdays during the school year, 5:30-6:20 p.m. Our Second-Ponce Singers participate in worship services every six to eight weeks, and all children's choirs participate in special presentations at Christmas and in the spring.

Our purpose is to teach children about the Love of Jesus through the gift of music. Children will experience this Love, gain confidence, and have fun through singing hymns anthems, creative movement, and playing games and instruments.

Rehearsal Schedule -- Every Wednesday, 5:30-6:20 p.m.

Music Friends		Ages 3 (by 9/01/11) & 4 Room C316 in the Children's Building
Music Makers		Kindergarten through 1st Grade Room C302 in the Children's Building
Second-Ponce Singers		2nd through 5th Grades Sanctuary Choir Room
