The Children's Music Ministry provides an opportunity for the children in our congregation to build relationships with each other in a caring Christian community, singing and learning about our faith. The choirs and other various activities at the Church are both grade and age-appropriate. Biblical and theological concepts, along with vocal skills are actively taught, in an environment where each participant is valued for uniqueness in voice, personality, and musicianship.

Our ministry programming includes two. During the year, each choir regularly shares God’s presence through the gift of music during both Sunday worship services. Additional events are planned also during holidays and other church celebrations.

  • THE SonShine Choir for pre-school aged children meets on Wednesdays between 3:30PM and 4:00PM in the Children's Division. Children learn basic music, arts and crafts, games, and music programs that are shared during Sunday morning worship and for special occasions. The praise of God and the love of Jesus Christ guide their experience in choir.

  • The Elementary Choir provides some of Broadway's youngest members the opportunity to experience God’s gifts through song and activities. Comprised of grades 1 through 4 students. They meet on Wednesdays between 3:30PM and 4:00PM in the choir room.

In addition to these organized choir ensembles, students share in God’s teachings through music activities Sunday morning before or after Sunday school and in children’s chapel, and have musical opportunities through Vacation Bible School and our Annual Summer Choir Camp.
