​Singing Angels in Dudley

Singing Angels is a singing group
for children aged 3+ held at St
Andrew’s Church in the Straits,
Dudley. It was set up in October 2016
by Claire Cox who was supported by
the church congregation when her
son was in hospital for many months
after he was born. 

Claire said: “I really wanted to give something back to the church which had supported
us so well. I have a background in amateur dramatics, so setting up a fun singing group
seemed like a really good idea.”

All are welcome to the group, which is run free of charge. Children aged 3+ sing for an
hour from 4pm each Sunday with those age 8+ staying for a further half hour from 5 –
5.30pm. The group sing a range of songs from pop to Christian songs and Christmas
carols. They hold regular showcases for family members to come and listen as well as
singing at fetes and events in the local area. 

“Part of our remit is to share our faith with others and encourage young people to
be part of our church family” continued Claire. “The children are all enthusiastic and
eager to learn and key Christian messages are delivered every week and enjoyed. The
children’s excitement to read a prayer has been overwhelming, such that we are now
taking it in turns in alphabetical order.

“I’m just amazed at what a huge success it’s been. With 30 children coming regularly,
we reach many more families than would come to a traditional church service on a
Sunday morning and it’s great to see everyone coming together to have fun and share
the good news of Jesus through our singing group!” 

Please pray for all involved in the Singing Angels group in Dudley.
