Children’s Music Education
Wednesdays from 5:15-6pm in the Music Room
Have you ever wished your student could get a quality music education? Wish no longer! During the season of Lent, Director of Music Richard Gray will be teaching a music class on Wednesdays. This will be a youth choir AND a music and worship education program. The group will sing in church on Easter Sunday. Any child of reading age or older is encouraged to join.
There is a possibility of this program continuing beyond Lent if there is enough interest.
On days that Youth Group is meeting, any youth doing both Children’s Music Education and Youth Group is encouraged to bring a bag dinner and eat with youth leaders in the green room from 6-6:30pm.
Contact Shelley Byrnes, Director of Children, Youth, and Family Ministry, to sign your child up or to ask any questions.
