Music Ministry

Music is integral to the celebration of any liturgical event. The voice of the assembly is the primary voice in any liturgy. Singing unifies and deepens, underscores and heightens our worship.

Praise Band - Our contemporary worship team always welcomes new members. They practice Monday nights during the school year. Contact Carrie Hiniker to join!

Do you have a talent? We always welcome new musicians to fill positions as cantors, organists, pianists, and other instruments! Please call the office if you can share your talent!

Would you like a say in our liturgy? The liturgical committee meets monthly to plan the music for the liturgy. Would you be interested in joining them? Call the office!
