At the core of Sing Unto God's mission is supporting teen songleaders who want to be a part of building something bigger and better. The SUG Teen Songleader Fellowships invite young Jewish songleaders to develop their skills, deepen their knowledge of repertoire and communal singing technique, and build meaningful leadership and relationship opportunities in their congregations, camps, and communities.
​
SUG songleaders learn so much more than how to be great performers. They learn how to collaboratively build and support strong, sustainable communities filled with song.

The fellowship taught me so many new skills for songleading that have been extremely helpful in my songleading journey and now it is something that I do regularly with my synagogue.The retreat especially was such a beneficial experience for me. In addition to being fun, I learned so much from being around talented teens that all shared the same love for music and songleading.
