Worship

 

Worship is the act of paying attention to what God is doing.  We are able to worship at all times, however, it is important to come together regularly as the community to interact with God.  We call this interaction Worship.

Technical Team (W001): 

Sound, lights and video are important aspects to any worship service in the 21st century.  Our Technical Team is responsible for the use of sound equipment, lighting, computers and projectors that help to enhance our worship experience and to add to the effectiveness of other events and services.  If you are creative, like technology, and have a desire to learn, then the Technical Team may be for you.  No previous experience is necessary.

Sanctuary Choir (W004) This is a group of adults (high school age and up) that sings during our Sunday worship services several times a month throughout the school year.  We may sing at other special services during the year, as well.

 

Chapel Bells (W005) This is a hand bell choir that begins practicing in the fall and plays the prelude one night of the Living Christmas Tree and during one or more Sunday services during the Christmas season.  We may play other times during the year, as schedules allow.

 

Special Music (W006) From time to time, some of our members share a solo, duet, ensemble or instrumental special with us during our Sunday worship service or during any of our special or seasonal services.
