Secrets of the Altar Guild From banners to candlesticks, albs to stoles, visual elements are plentiful throughout our worship settings.

Workshop is available at the following locations: WA, MN, SC, and PA.

In addition to new choral anthems, this session will introduce several new songbook/teaching resources, Can't Wait to Sing! and Children Sing with Instruments, each designed with teaching helps for leading successful choir rehearsals. Using these and other products, discover fresh and engaging ideas for teaching your children to sing throughout the year!
