Music Ministry
Music is a vital part of church life. Our primary purpose is to draw people to God through weekly worship experiences and special musical events throughout the year. We also provide musical training and leadership experiences for everyone, from preschoolers to senior adults.
Sanctuary Choir
The Sanctuary Choir is a non-auditioned group of adults of all ages who rehearse weekly on Wednesdays from 7:30 – 8:30 pm. This choir leads in worship in our 8:30 a.m. service. In addition, the Sanctuary Choir participates in special Christmas programs and other events throughout the year.
Transformed Praise Band
“Transformed,” a praise band of instrumentalists and vocalists, was formed in 2001 to provide music for the youth worship service. It has since become the praise band for the church, leading our contemporary music for the 11 a.m. worship service each Sunday. Though the band’s membership has changed over the years, the mission of the group has remained the same: to glorify God, humbly serve Him as ministers of music and lead others into his divine presence.
