Haven United Methodist Church Has Come Alive with Music Since Pastor Juhee Lee Began Her Ministry in 2019.
Not only has there been exceptional concert level music played, but there has also been an invitation to the community to receive free music lessons provided by the expertise of Pastor Lee and her team. She believes that the Haven Free Music School is intended to give disadvantaged children and adults an opportunity for music education. The program also looks to help them develop positive self-esteem and confidence through music and sharing God's love.
For those who have participated, there has been much gratitude. One parent commented, "My son played the songs he learned on the xylophone for his grandmother and she loved it! So grateful to connect with Christ and music!" Another participant stated, "I am trying to come up with a plan that reverses the self-neglect that I have adapted. Playing the violin is an excellent stress reliever as it offers mental, emotional, and physical benefits. I would love to learn to play a violin but due to limited finances I didn't know how I could accomplish this. (Through your free program) God doesn't take long to answer prayer!"
The Haven Free Music School will begin again in September at the church located at 200 Taunton Avenue, East Providence RI, 02914. In addition to the school, Haven is providing a free Summer Music Chamber Ensemble Camp at the church from July 19 to July 30 Mon, Wed, Fri. 10am-12 pm. At the end of this music camp, there will be indoor/outdoor concerts at a local nursing home, elderly housing complex, senior center and Farmer’s Market/library in our community.
