Hello Youth Choir enthusiasts. We are exploring the possibility of a tour, and are hoping for one or two choir exchanges along our route from the Chicago area south to Tennessee. Our choir has 30/35 members, grades 6-12. We are in search of choir connections to spread God’s love and joy through glorious music. Kenilworth Union Church would also love to host a choir. Email me at if you are interested in hosting/exchanging. Here is a general info video about our church, from our 125th anniversary celebration: https://youtu.be/11UZ_Ek2i4M and the second video features our youth choir singing Rollo Dilworth ‘s “Jesus What a Wonderful Child.”
