Worship & Music Ministry
Jesus the One and Only
April 8, 2012 @ 10:45am
Make sure you make plans to join us this year for Easter as we celebrate the resurrection of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. The music will take you through the events during the week before the crucifiction leading to the exciting climatic finish with Jesus triumph over the grave. The musical is free of charge and there is child care provided for younger children during the service. If you have any questions please contact the office.
Philosophy
The desire of the music ministry is to uplift the name of Jesus Christ through spirited blended worship each and every Sunday. Realizing that they are singing to an audience of ONE, the prayer of the members of the music ministry is that their music will encourage the saints and be used by the Holy Spirit to prepare hearts for the preaching of the Word of God resulting in transformed lives through a personal relationship with Jesus.
Style
Each week the congregation is lead in corporate worship through a blended style of music. The congregation singing is balanced between the great hymns of the faith and the new praise and worship music being written each and every year. It is blend that is pleasing to the Lord.
