Choir Showcase
The three “Singing and Praising” times in the schedule will feature participating choirs or ensembles.  Each performance should be limited to six (6) minutes so as to accommodate all groups who would like to participate.  Please indicate your musical selection(s) on the registration form if you plan to participate in the Choir Showcase.  All performances will take place in the Sanctuary of Wilmont Place Baptist Church.

Music for Singing and Praising
We will provide four mass choir anthems for each registered participant.  In each of the sessions, we will spend some rehearsal time on these pieces.  All other group singing will be from the hymnal.  These will be available at the church.

Dale Griffin, Dean of Spiritual Life at Oklahoma Baptist University, is our special guest for the day.  He is a worship leader, choral director and church musician with a history of denominational and local church service.  He has led student choirs at national events for both Glorieta and Ridgecrest.  He also loves to work with the young at heart leading in glorious hymn singing, anthem presentations, and in sharing a story or two from the piano, through drama or the spoken word in a unique and memorable style.  You’ll leave inspired after a day with Dale!
