Music Lessons

During the summer break, we wanted to do something for the kids of the church and community to keep them away from the usual routine of tv, video games, computers, etc.  What we decided to do was offer free music lessons for those who wanted to join.  The idea was not to focus on creating musical stars (as most of these kids where ages 5-10), but rather to keep them entertained, focused, and busy during their summer break.  Rather than having them spent hours watching tv, playing video games, etc. we had them come in three times a week to practice singing or playing a musical instrument of their choice.  Over these two months we saw them strive to learn as much as they could.  Because of that, we feel that continuing this effort will be beneficial for them.
