PROGRAMS
​
Visiting Youth Choir Initiative
Each year we host and collaborate with accomplished local youth choirs from the region, including Voices in Praise (MD) and Madeira School (VA). 

Children's Chapel Music
During the school year on Sundays during the 9am service, children ages 3 through 2nd grade participate in their own worship service where age-appropriate lessons, songs and prayers are offered. Song selections are fun and simple to learn and memorize and are periodically offered to the congregation on select Sundays.

​Vocal Coaching
Older choristers and adults receive both group and individual vocal training from accomplished vocal coaches from the greater Annapolis area. These lessons allow for additional work outside of choir rehearsals on technique, breathing and overall vocal development and health.
