RONAN — The brand new Mission Valley Children’s Choir will be open to any 3-6 grade students who want to learn to sing better and have a good time doing it. It will be directed by Cathy Gillhouse and assisted by Pastor Seth Nelson. Rehearsal will be held on Wednesday afternoons from 4-5 p.m. at Faith Lutheran Church, 406 Fifth Ave. SW in Ronan. Rehearsals will begin Sept. 23. Refreshments will be served each week, and participation is free of charge. 

Many different styles will be sung by the choir throughout the year, from multi-cultural, spirituals, folk songs, seasonal, patriotic, sacred, and show tunes. It is Gillhouse’s goal to expose the children to as many styles of music as possible. 

Gillhouse is the former Ronan High School Choir teacher and director of the Ronan Show Choir’s Annual Cabaret. She taught music, mostly choir, in Charlo and Ronan for 41 years. She has also performed in 15 Port Polson plays and musicals. 

Pastor Seth Nelson has been participating in choirs for 25 years. He composes and performs his own music, had several years of teaching experiences, and has sung internationally. He will also accompany the choir on guitar and drums when needed. 

Gillhouse said she is very excited about directing this choir and hopes that it will become a fun and educational activity for Mission Valley children for many years to come.
