 Bruton Choristers
Choristers. 
Our Choristers group is for third to eighth graders and meets on Sundays from 11:10-11:45am to rehearse. Third graders can work with our directors to determine which choir is the best fit for them based on their ability and maturity. The Choristers is a choir that is challenged and nourished in the rich Anglican tradition of choral music. High school students are encouraged to sing in the Pelham Choir which rehearses on Wednesdays at 6pm and sings on Sundays at our 9:15 service. The choir sings once or twice a month from September through May for the 9:15 a.m. service of Holy Eucharist.

It will be a time for kids to have a fun experience of worshipping God through music while giving them the foundation needed to continue learning how tosing as they grow older.
