Worship Initiatives
The Dunn Center for Christian Music Studies (CCMS) at Baylor has become a leading voice for promoting intergenerational worship, maintaining an ongoing relationship with those studying and shaping multigenerational communities. Through active research projects, these relationships will continue to be cultivated, while new focus will be placed on the unique needs of children in intergenerational settings.
