Choirs

Psalm 33:3
Sing to him a new song;
play skillfully, and shout for joy.

Choirs at Light of Christ praise the Lord with a new song by breathing new life into timeless classic hymns and singing the latest songs from top contemporary Christian artists. Once you hit three years of age you are a member of the Light of Christ Choirs for life! Choirs kick-off in September and finish their season in May. Anyone can be a part of the choir for their age group – no auditions required. For more information contact Brad at 847.658.9250 ext. 16 or via e-mail.

Girls’ Ensemble REGISTER NOW is geared to middle school aged girls, developing not only vocal skills but also the art of being a worship leading choir.  During their practice this group is steered by praise songs that the girls help choose. Girls then develop songs in two to three part harmony, eventually adding the praise band as accompaniment and developing their own stage presence in presenting music in worship as well as leading the congregation. Girls Ensemble meets on Monday evenings, 6:30 - 7:15p.  Contact Dr. Josh Jones, Director of Blended Worship, for details.
