Worship, Music & Arts

For both experienced and non-experienced bell ringers of all ages. There are two four-octave handbell choirs that provide music in worship once a month. The bell choir has been a part of our community for over 20 years, with beginning ringers learning basic ringing techniques and musicianship in the training choir. More experienced ringers have an opportunity to share their gifts and skills by ringing challenging bell music in the more advanced choir.

For children in grades 2 through 6. The singers lift up their voices at 9:00 or 11:15 (alternately) on the fourth Sunday of each month. By singing in choir, the children develop their ears and voices, they have the experience of singing and speaking in front of a crowd, and they participate as leaders in our worship of God. Contact Director Casey Huls.

The Praise Choir leads both instrumental and vocal music for our Contemporary Worship Service each Sunday at 11:15 a.m. The praise team comprises of vocalists and instrumentalists, including guitar, bass, drums, keyboard, saxophone, or any instrument you are talented in playing. While both youth and a range of adult members, the band is truly intergenerational, and it continues to grow from strength to strength. For more information, contact Director Sara Miller.

Adult Choir is open to anyone high school age or older and performs a variety of songs at the Traditional Worship Service on the third Sunday of each month, as well as at a few special services throughout the year. This choir prepares moderately difficult choral music, while sharing fellowship and building community in weekly rehearsals. 

Its members are the whole congregation, as this choir is open to any singer willing to come to a single rehearsal at 8:00 a.m. on the first Sunday of any given month. We learn the anthem from scratch that morning and offer it up during the 9:00 a.m. service. For more information, contact Director Sara Miller.

Operate sound board during traditional and/or contemporary worship services. The goal of the soundboard technician is to make sure that the speakers, singers, and instruments can all be heard clearly. They set up microphones before each service, adjust volume levels, and prevent the feedback and interference that can result from amplified sound. If you have an interest in this team, but no experience, Matt June will train you! For more information, contact Matt June.

Illuminate both worship services with words and images projected on the front and back walls of the Sanctuary. This is a job that requires focused attention for the whole hour, as some parts of the service move quite quickly, and many members of the congregation rely exclusively on the projected text for guidance. For more information, contact Sara Miller.

Create slide decks during the week, so that the text of readings are accurate for Sunday, and so that images reinforce the message of the week or the season. For more information, contact Sara Miller or Jon Killgore.
