Music Ministry
The music ministry at Cookeville First adds vitality and sense of holiness to our worship experience. Worship is at the center of our church life, and music plays a vital role in how we experience the grace of God in our worship lives inside and outside of the church.
COOKEVILLE FIRST UMC
Discipleship Through Music
The music ministry at Cookeville First offers something for every age. From preschool music classes to opportunities for our school-age kids, and from our wonderful youth choir and various ensembles and hand bells, praise bands and our formal cancel choir, there are several ways to participate and experience God’s love through Music and Worship.
If you or your child are interested in participating in a choir, ensemble, program or special event, please fill out the form at the bottom of the page for more information!
Early Childhood Music Ministry and Young Singer Adventures
Cookeville First UMC offers a quality, hands-on musical experience for your young child.
Parents and caregivers accompany their child in a loving and nurturing environment and start building their lifelong appreciation of music! Classes start the week of January 9. Early Childhood Music is for infants through age five.
Choir Club
Choir Club is for children ages 3 – 6th grade on Wednesday afternoons. Activites include choir time, instrumental instruction, Bible lessons, drama, puppets, and so much more! Participants in Choir Club have several opportunities to share their gifts in our church’s worship services on Sundays and various other opportunities throughout the year.
We hope your child will join us to learn the fundamentals of music and learn the importance of worship in the Christian life – all shared by our talented staff with lots of fun! There’s no charge for Choir Club, but we hope you’ll be active and committed to sharing your gifts in this way! Click HERE for more information!
Music and Worship Arts
Don’t put off joining a choir or instrumental group any longer! Music ministry at Cookeville First UMC is a vital part of our worship life and an opportunity to grow in discipleship and relationships.
We hope you will share your God-given talents with us in one of our groups, whether it’s our Chancel Choir, an ensemble, a smaller vocal group, or one of our bands! In addition to our music opportunities, other worship arts options are available! Share your gifts with us – it is a wonderful way to praise God and share the story of grace in our own unique way!

Handbells
Our handbell groups have been a special part of our church ministry since 1974. The groups are a fixture in our worship life – sharing their musical gifts consistently throughout the year.
The handbell choir rehearses on Thursday afternoons at 4:45 p.m. and participates in worship services as well as special seasonal services. If you are interested in learning more about playing in one of our handbell choirs, contact Kathy Evans.
