Worship Teams

Worship Teams

For those who are talented in music and called to contribute in that way we have multiple places to serve and minister through our Praise Band and/or Chancel Choir. We also celebrate solo musicians. For those who are more technical in skill, audio-visual opportunities abound for both services. And we value having a variety of people participate in worship leadership in both services, as we are the church together.
