Choir Connection
The St. Olaf Choir Connection is an exciting opportunity for youth and teen choir singers. This five-day program, running concurrently with the St. Olaf Conference on Worship, Theology and the Arts (CWTA) is a creative, focused time to grow and learn together.
This year’s theme is “One Voice, One Fellowship, One Christ.”
Psalm 133:1 states “How pleasant it is when God’s people live together in unity!” A choir is the very essence of what it means to be a community. By singing in one voice, we enter into a unique fellowship, where we can become the very body of Christ. This year’s Choir Connection will gather to sing, play, laugh, and grow as one group to the glory of God.

- Supplementary music activities with a music packet to take home
- An opportunity to play handbells and/or percussion instruments
- Bible study in a fun, creative setting
- Art projects related to the theme for the week; led by a professional artist
- Supervised recreational activities
- A service in song on Thursday evening in Boe Memorial Chapel
