Hand Bells
The Hand Bell choir (The Belles of Praise) is part of the Music Ministry of Edmond's First Baptist Church. The bells ring at worship services, meetings, weddings, etc. They are like no other instrument – each bell is part of a keyboard. Our desire is that the Hand Bell Choir will be used as His instruments to bring glory to our Lord. For more information, contact Vera Thomas at 405-341-0253.

Children's Choir
Children’s Choir’s meet on Wednesday evenings as part of Club 252 from 6:00 PM to 7:15 PM in the Children’s Wing. Children’s choirs are grouped according to age and/or grade and are formed for groups that are age 3 to fifth grade. Approximately twice a year each age group will lead a chosen song or songs during worship. These times are precious both to the children and their families. We encourage families to recognize them as such and to be in attendance when they perform.

Children’s choirs meet in the Children’s Wing of the church. Choirs are grouped according to age and/or grade with each group meeting in different classrooms of the Children’s Wing.
