“Using the Performing Arts to Worship God”

I have some exciting news for Youth that attend The First Presbyterian Church of Wheaton.  It is the program called The Proclaimers – “Using the Performing Arts to Worship God”.  The program will run from 4:30 – 5:00 PM on every Wednesday that LOGOS is in session.  This music / drama program for Middle School is an option that you can select to have your youth involved in as part of the LOGOS program at First Presbyterian Church.  Who knows where this great program could take your youth in the future.  The Proclaimers started on Wednesday, October 7, 2009.

You may register your child for the Proclaimers online:  Register for Global Singers

If you have any questions about this exciting program or have not yet had a chance to register, please contact David Lincoln at 630-668-5147 (ext. 22); or you can send an e-mail to dlincoln@firstpreswheaton.org.

Supporting Groups -

The Westminster Choir is for individuals of high school age through adult. Their repertoire includes a broad spectrum of traditional choral literature, as well as contemporary anthems and service music. The choir's primary focus is to lead musically in worship each Sunday, but they also seek to broaden their mission by participating in other community musical events. The current Westminster Choir Schedule is available on this web site. Contact David Lincoln for more information about the Westminster Choir.

Children's Music at First Presbyterian Church of Wheaton is also incorporated into our weekly LOGOS educational program. Each Wednesday children in grades K-8 are exposed to a variety of musical activities that are used to lead worship. These include singing, liturgical dance, tone chimes, percussion, handbells, guitar lessons, puppetry, and musical drama. The objective of these activities is for youth and children to develop responsibility for, and practice in, worship and service to God and their church.

The Celebration Ringers is our high school and adult handbell choir. They practice and play in worship monthly on an arranged basis. It is an adept musical group and is open to all capable music readers, no previous bell experience required. Contact David Lincoln for more information about the Celebration Ringers.

Celebration Service Ensembles are a great way to get involved in singing or playing an instrument for a Celebration Service. Contact Jeff Leavitt for more information about becoming involved in the music for the Celebration Services.

Occasionally during worship, additional vocalists and instrumentalists are used to enhance the worship experience, either in a solo/ensemble arrangement or as part of an orchestra.

DO YOU SING OR PLAY AN INSTRUMENT AND ARE NOT INVOLVED IN THE MUSIC MINISTRY? -- Contact David Lincoln or Jeff Leavitt using the Church Staff page to get involved in worship at First Presbyterian.
