We welcome all who would like to be part of our music ministry.  We believe that music is worship and plays a vital role in our worship services. We have opportunities for all age groups and if you like to sing or play an instrument we would invite you to become part of our worship ministry family.

Children’s Choirs

Our children are an important part of the music ministry at EFUMC.  All children’s choirs use graded material with emphasis placed upon worship, reading skills and musicianship.  Children’s choir is a part of Wonderful Wednesday activities.

We have three children’s choirs that sing at various times throughout the year on Sundays and Wednesdays.  The Music Makers, Young Musicians and Cherub Choirs meet on Wednesday afternoons during Wonderful Wednesdays and the Cherub Choir meets again on Sunday mornings 10:00—10:15. Tone Chimes for children in grades 1-3 meet at 6:00 PM on Wednesdays and Handbells for children in grades 4-6 meet at 6:00 PM Wednesday evenings.   Each summer in July a Music Camp is held with visiting clinicians leading the camp.
