Oklahoma Baptist Children’s Chorus

The Oklahoma Baptist Children’s choir is beginning their 13th season for 2025-2026. OBCC is open to all 4-7 graders. It is exciting to hear young musicians develop their gift of music. OBCC sings in churches across the state of Oklahoma, conferences and other venues. They learn songs about the Lord and share the message of the gospel through music.

Nothing goes together better than children and music!

The Oklahoma Baptist Children’s choir wants to invite your young musician to join. Children remember what they sing much longer than any other form of learning!  Friendships develop and continue into their highschool and college years.  Several alumni are now serving in churches as ministers of music and in other music responsibilities.  Come be a part! 

Join us!

This group is an auditioned group.

Auditions are held at Cross Timbers Camp, W.A.C.K. or by appointment.
