Music and Arts Ministry
Through weekly rehearsals, worship services, concerts, art shows, and drama productions, the music and arts ministry seeks to glorify God by using the creative gifts that He has given to our church family. From preschool children through adults, there are opportunities to use music and other creative outlets to worship God and reflect Him as our Creator. Some highlights of our church calendar are our summer church-family choir (ages 9-99) and our annual Christmas concert.
