New This Year!!!

This year for the first time, a special singing opportunity is being offered to above average singers in grades 4 thorugh 7 who wish to be part of an ensemble that serves in worship occasionally.  This group will be expected to read music and sing in parts.  The group will determine time of rehearsal and the name.  For information contact Jean Moser.


Jubilate Bell Choir

For the children who have completed training in Bell Canto, and any 5th - 7th graders who are interested in ringing.  Rehearsal times are flexible and not necessarily on a weekly basis.  Students are welcome to join at any point in the year.  For more information contact Jean Moser.

St. Peter's Family Singers

Throughout the year, especially on Faith Circuit Celebration Sundays, you may join your Cherub and Jubilee singers for the special music. They can share the music with you and then we will all rehearse with the Sr. Choir plus the new group for grades 4, 5, 6, and 7.  There are families who would love to do something together. What better way to be together, than to sing in joy and celebration?
