IMPACT
Children’s Music and Education Program
IMPACT is Buford First UMC’s children’s music and education program for children age 3 through 5th grade. The program runs during the school year (August-May) on Sunday evenings from 5:30 – 7:00 pm.
The IMPACT Children’s Choir is made up of three smaller groups:
- Angelus Choir: 3-4 year olds
- Cherub Choir: K-1st graders
- Junior Choir: 2nd-5th graders
The three IMPACT Children’s Choirs sing regularly at our worship services and are very important to our worship experience at Buford First. The curriculum includes music literacy, vocal technique and expressing their talents through the choral singing experience. We also make sure that the children learn and experience how much fun music ministry can be.
For more information, contact Diana Foster, Donna Guy, or Debra Hogg (IMPACT Children’s Choir Directors).

December/2011 Performance: Camel Lot
Thanks so much to everyone for making Camel Lot, Buford First’s Christmas musical for IMPACT kids from age 3 to 5th grade, such a huge success and so much fun for everyone!
Camel Lot Overview
Camel Lot is filled with the coolest music; a fun, funny, but Biblically rock-solid message; and the best time your kids will have anywhere this Christmas!
Beth has been practicing hard for the church Christmas pageant. Her Dad (who runs a car dealership), may be too busy with Christmas car sales to make it to the program. Exhausted from practice, with lines from Luke 2 swirling in her mind, she drifts off to sleep. Transported by Beth’s imagination (and a sound effect or two!) we all “wake up” in Bethlehem on a very special day, and in a most unusual place — the Camel Lot! It doesn’t take long, inside Beth’s topsy-turvy dream world, to encounter camel shoppers, sales people, shepherds, wise men, and a very familiar story, told in a fun and refreshing new way!
It’s all here … music your kids really want to sing, a story everybody will love, and the clear, simple message of Jesus the Savior, sent to our world to redeem sinful humanity. In short, there’s simply not … a better place to spend Christmas with your kids choir this year, than here in — Camel Lot!
