We desire to be a singing church with our worship magnifying our great God, and extolling the excellencies of Christ and the gospel. God’s Word is foundational to our worship of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit.

Paul instructs us in Colossians to “Let the Word of Christ dwell in you richly, teaching and admonishing one another in all wisdom, singing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, with thankfulness in your hearts to God” (Colossians 3:16).

WE SING TO GOD AND TO EACH OTHER, REMINDING OURSELVES OF THE SPLENDORS OF OUR GOD.

Worship Teams

Our Worship Teams minister on Sunday mornings in both services (9 and 10:45 am). If you are interested in serving as a vocalist or instrumentalist, contact Pastor Doug to set up an audition. Rehearsals are scheduled for Sunday mornings before service at 7 am.

Worship Choir

The Worship Choir sings in the Sunday morning services, and you’re welcome to join! No audition is required. During the fall, winter, and spring, rehearsals are weekly on Wednesdays from 6:45 to 8:30 pm in the Choir Suite.

Tech Teams

Our Tech Teams serve on Sundays for both morning services (9 and 10:45 am). We have sound, lighting, video mixing, camera operators, and lyric projection service opportunities available. On the job training will be provided. Want to join the Tech Team? Contact our Tech Director, Mike Niemi.
