We offer an exciting program of graded children's choirs and bell choirs, building a strong foundation for further music learning while providing opportunity for fun and fellowship! Offered in coordination with our all-church Wednesday evening programming, your children can enjoy a spiritual journey through music and the arts while parents and siblings can explore their own opportunities through adult discipleship classes, youth programs, and a family friendly Wednesday night meal.

We seek to provide a ministry where young musicians are able to engage in all varieties of music while building friendships that truly last a lifetime. The Epworth Chorale Youth Choir is the resident choir of the 9am Classic Service. Reflections, Epworth Ringers, and the Epworth Orchestra provide additional music throughout the year. Our young singers and ringers have the opportunity to participate in a mission tour each June. Under Dr. Aitken's direction, tour locations have included trips to Canada as well as nearly every major region of the United States.
