Music at Little Zion

Music and vibrant congregational singing is important to us at Little Zion. If you love music and singing, we think you'll feel right at home with us. We consider all worship to be relevant to the teachings of the Bible and our contemporary setting. Our music illustrates our worldview.

We love the Bach of our heritage as well as the African tunes our missionaries have brought home. Folk, jazz, pop and traditional hymns are also represented in the mix that helps us interpret our unique experience as followers of Christ in this place and time.

In addition to our choirs, our musical organizations include acoustic group players, the seasonal brass and the chime players. Accompaniment for congregational singing is provided on pipe organ and piano. We are also blessed to have soloists on many Sundays who add their gifts to our worship.

Our Choirs

Senior Choir (teens and adults):
Led by director Lisa Travis, the Senior Choir currently consists of 15 members. It is ever-expanding and meets on Thursday evenings from 7:30 pm to 9:00 pm, with a break during the summer months. We welcome all who would like to join us in singing God's praises. No experience is required; you will learn about music as you go!

Junior Choir (3rd-7th grade):
The Junior Choir meets on Thursday evenings from 6:30 pm to 7:15 pm, with a summer break. If you like singing, you will enjoy being part of this group of spirited youth!

The Cherub Choir is for our youngest singers, from 4 years of age through the 2nd grade.

Lisa Travis leads the little singers, who participate in worship occasionally and have activities together like picnics.
