Children’s Choir Sign-up

Interested in having your child learn more about his or her faith in a practical way? Interested in having your child participate in a free musical program that fosters teamwork and service to others? Our parish’s Children’s Choir might be exactly what you’re looking for. This program is open to all children that will be in 2nd grade and over during the 2018-2019 Academic Year. This program is led by our parish’s very own Director of Music, Bill Freeman, who is a licensed K-12 music teacher AND elementary teacher currently teaching at Mojave High School (previously at Gragson Elementary).

Practices are held on Saturdays (you will receive a schedule). The children will sing at one Mass a month, after we get started, at either the Saturday 4 PM, Sunday 2 PM, or Sunday 4 PM Mass. The children will also sing at the annual Christmas Pageant (Date TBA), the 4 PM Christmas Eve Mass, and a concert with the other choirs in the spring.

Sign-up below the video of the children singing at Mass last Christmas.
