Sunday School for Elementary Children

music

Music and the Master - Children's Music

Christ Our Shepherd is well known for its music programs.  Beginning with programs for elementary children, Christ Our Shepherd offers opportunities for children to sing and play instruments.  Both of these programs are on Wednesday afternoons. 

 

sKIDdles is a fun way for children to engage with music and movement. Children sing several times in worship throughout the year.

Children learn music basics through handbells, chimes, and singing. Participants perform during worship services several times throughout the year. M&Ms also perform a musical each semester, which offers opportunities to learn drama skills and gain self-confidence while reinforcing Bible stories.
