Young Lutherans Sing
A Music and Worship Program for Children
Young Lutherans Sing (YLS) is an inspiring choral and worship experience for young musicians with treble voices who have completed grades 3 through 8.
This residential program provides children with a knowledge and appreciation of the Church's song that serves as the basis for future spiritual growth and worship leadership as members of their own congregations. Participants need not be Lutheran.
