		We are thankful the Lord is blessing our church through the music ministry. From preschool ages to senior adults, there are music opportunities for all. Everyone is encouraged to sing from their hearts unto the Lord.

		Music Ministry Philosophy: To utilize whatever styles and modes of music to help us achieve our purpose statement. We have two worship services: contemporary and blended in music style, utilizing a blend of hymns and choruses for congregational participation. Testimonies in song by the choir, orchestra, soloists, and ensembles include every style of music from contemporary to southern gospel. Sunday evening worship services tend to be more contemporary in nature utilizing more "praise and worship."


	Another need of our church that pertains directly to the music ministry is the Multimedia Ministry. We are always in need of capable operators for the following: Sound Operation & Video/DVD/Powerpoint Operation
