Worship the Lord with gladness, come before him with joyful
songs. (Psalm
100:2).
The music program at Northminster provides children, youth and adults the
opportunity to learn and put into practice musical techniques while contributing
to worship services. The following are opportunities for you and your family to
use their talent in devotion and praise to God:
Youth Programs
The music program for children and youth
in 2003-04 runs Mid-September through
through the end of May with a short break during January. It offers a
full-graded choir program of learning music and sharing what they've learned
with their church family.
JOYFUL
NOISE: Our "Joyful Noise" program for
children through elementary involves them in the elements and execution of
Worship. They become Worship Leaders instead of Worship Watchers and gives them
a sense of usefulness to the whole Church. This year,
Joyful Noise will be a part of Northminster Every Wednesday.

Wednesday evening opportunity for fellowship and learning.)

CHERUB CHOIR: This year Cathi Muckerman will be
working with our youngest singers (4 & 5 year olds) on such concepts as
high-low, soft-loud, fast-slow, and having a fun time singing songs about Jesus.
PRIMARY CHOIR: David Langley leads the 1st & 2nd
Graders in developing basic musicianship and motor skills through fun and
exciting music activities and games with heavy emphasis on singing.
ELEMENTARY CHOIR: David Langley
leads 3rd-5th Graders in music they will share
with the congregation. Beginning music reading will be taught through
established music education techniques such as Orff and Kodaly, and of course,
lots of singing.
YOUTH CHOIR:
6th-12th Grade youth meet from 6:00 to 7:00 p.m. in the
Sanctuary with Charlie Boone as Director. Meeting between Jr. High and Sr. High
youth group times, gives both Middle and High School youth a chance to
participate. They will be working on vocal techniques, score reading and singing
in parts. This fabulous group of singers participates regularly in worship
services.
Adult Programs
The adult music program runs all year and is an integral part of worship at
Northminster each Sunday and for special occasions.
HANDBELL CHOIR:
Directed by Charlie Boone, the
handbell choir is open to any Youth or Adult who can attend rehearsal on a
REGULAR basis. No experience is necessary, we will teach you everything you need
to know. Rehearsal time is 7:45 each Wednesday evening in the
Sanctuary.
ADULT CHOIR:
The adult choir meets all year and is an integral part of
worship at Northminster each Sunday and for special occasions. Rehearsals are at
7:30 on Thursday evenings with Charlie Boone in the Sanctuary. The group enjoys
the fellowship of retreats to North Carolina and fun and games at Christmas.
Everyone, at all levels of music ability, is welcome. Come learn with us and
share your musical gift.
