This training meeting can be a valuable resource for choristers! What i loved was the simplicity in teaching music. Sometimes we (or at least i did) put a huge emphasis on artsy crafty things for singing time yet this training reminded me of the power of simplicity. The methods shown were simple, non stressful, and BENEFICIAL! Here's a link to the general auxiliary training. Maybe you'll find it inspirational and helpful in your singing time preparations. Happy Singing!!!

Music resource
My presidency and I attended the General auxiliary training in SLC the other day. It was amazing. I left with many impressions and plans for future efforts. But it also made me miss being the chorister. There was a segment focused specifically on music that touched my heart in many ways. How important singing time is!!! And how powerful these songs are! I felt renewed in my testimony of the message contained in primary songs.

Gone with the wind....
Here one day...gone the next. Like the wind.....I feel like i am still new to the chorister calling...and yet, i have been released. I was just starting to get the hang of it and even felt somewhat comfortable (therein lies the problem...never get comfortable!) ;) Anyway, i was called as the new primary president so i am lucky enough to still be in primary and hopefully i can post ideas on here occasionally. We have a fabulous new chorister and i am anxious to watch the children's love for singing continue to grow.
Thank you for sharing your amazing ideas!! I am in awe at the talent, the ingenuity, the wisdom and the inspiration that is out there. I have been fortified by you and I have loved being a part of the "chorister blog family!!
