The Youth Ensemble is open to youth ages 10 and up. It is a supportive and nurturing fellowship whose goal it is to improve their skills as individuals and, as a blended group, to provide worship of Christ through the use of their voices and musical instruments.

No formal training is required to participate, just a willingness to learn and a commitment to attend rehearsals and Sunday presentations.

The Youth Ensemble provides music at one of the Sunday services once a month, September through May. They are especially helpful during the Advent, Christmas and Easter seasons - often performing several times a month during these seasons.

The Youth Ensemble begins its year in September and they conclude their singing at the end of May.

They rehearse on Wednesday evenings from 7 pm until 7:45 pm (immediately following youth group). During the busiest church seasons, group and individual rehearsals are scheduled as needed.

They start the year off with an ice cream social to welcome new members and welcome back the “tried and true.” They finish the year with an outing.

They are directed and accompanied by Wanda Laux, a very experienced private voice and piano teacher in Lakeland. You may contact Wanda about joining the Ensemble at 863-944-3344 or email her at studiolaux@yahoo.com.
