Our mission of nurturing the musical and spiritual growth of children, youth, and adults is achieved by providing educational resources and training to ensure that ministry and music leaders have the resources and music they need to succeed in their work. Through Choristers Guild, these leaders have access to, and good dialogue with, a network of mutually sharing and supportive peers who have the same sense of calling. Resources include the annual Choristers Guild Institute, webinars, workshops and scholarships. In line with our mission, we also publish choral, handbell and instrumental music.Â
Each choir year brings with it new teaching tools, events, and opportunities for us to grow together and lift each other up. This year, we are pleased to share that Choristers Guild has received a grant of $1.25M from Lilly Endowment Inc., funded through their national initiative to support faith-based organizations in helping children grow in faith and deepen their relationships with God. We applied for this grant because we recognized common ground with the mission of our organization, which will soon mark 75 years of service alongside leaders in music and ministry.Â
We look forward to working with partners new and old in efforts to rebuild struggling childrenâs choirs, organize new children's choirs, and in teaching children to use their musical skills as worship leaders. Please invest in our mission by donating through the North Texas Giving Day campaign. In doing so, you help grow life-shaping children's music ministries and dynamic Christian education.
