Worship

Praise Band

We are blessed to have a number of church members who share their God-given talents with the church and congregation every Sunday. Our praise band is currently made up of a pianist, trombonist, saxophonist, drummer, and vocalist. We are always excited for the opportunity to feature musicians from within the community, and have welcomed guest musicians to join us for special services, which has allowed us to add violin, trumpet, euphonium, and guitar on several occasions. 

If you are interested in learning more about the praise band, or if you would like to discuss joining, please reach out to our Worship Ministry Director.  

 Choir

Our choir is made up of passionate men and women that love to sing for Jesus. We welcome those from 13 years and up, with special consideration taken if a younger member is currently in a school choir. The choir season begins the week of Labor Day in September and ends the Sunday before Memorial Day in May. We typically sing once per month during our 9AM worship service, and work through a year-long choir setting. 

We would love for you to join us; choir practice is on Wednesdays at 6PM. If you would like to join, or have any questions, please reach out to our Worship Ministry Director.
