F.O.G. (Followers of God) YOUTH GROUP
The youth group includes Middle School and High School youth and meets every Saturday during the school year. The evening usually begins with the youth helping to prepare an evening meal, with the help of adult volunteers who bring the necessary ingredients. Supper is usually accompanied by lively conversation and discussion. The second half of the evening often includes board games, air hockey, foosball, participatory games and sometimes a movie. A group of adult volunteers offer their time in a rotation. Special events may include camping trips, bowling, movie nights.

The band is comprised of Middle and High School youth playing a variety of instruments from drums, tambourines, brass, wind, and voice. They play a variety of Christian rock, reggae, and worship songs and their own arrangements of favorite hymns. Newcomers are always welcome to join in. The ability to read music is a help but not a requirement. The group meets at a family home most Friday evenings. Deborah Murray is the contact person. She may be reached through the church office or website.
Adult Choir
CLC Choir meets during most of the church season on Thursday evenings from 7:30-8:30. During Lent (5 weeks preceeding Easter) we rehearse instead on Wednesday evenings so choir members can attend the Lenten soup suppers and service offered. We sing an anthem most Sundays and do a lot of hymn-singing in our practice in order to inspire confidence in our congregational singing. Twice a year we offer a choir workshop, in order to look through all our music for the upcoming seasons and have fellowship together. We take the summers off and re-convene in September. During the summer, small ensembles and soloists sing and play instruments nearly every Sunday!
Please visit the CLC choir at any time! You are most, most welcome to join our group of about 10-20 singers, all at varying levels of experience. For more information, please email the church at info@coastsidelutheran.org, or contact the choir director, Amy Cowan at amyecowan@yahoo.com.
Mens Ensemble
Men's ensemble convenes twice a year with one Thursday practice and a Sunday anthem. Please plan to come, or encourage the men in your life to come try this out...no obligations or long-term commitments! (Ages 14 and older most welcome!)
