Our goal as a music/worship ministry is to bring glory to Jesus through music. Like everything else in creation, music was created to bring glory to the Creator. Through the effects of sin, our world has taken music and perverted it to exalt and glorify creation rather than the Creator. We have the privilege to use the gift of music for it’s original purpose and design; to exalt and lift up the name of Jesus. We strive to instill this truth with a multi-generational mindset. Beginning with preschoolers, through the elementary ages, on to involvement in our student choir ministry, and through adulthood, we want to instill a heart for true worship and worship leading.
Cherishing the old and embracing the new, our church’s worship is a blend of contemporary worship songs with traditional hymns in a dynamic style that reflects the hearts of the people of FBC.
Our team of instrumentalists, seek to use their gifts and talents to lead people in worship each and every week. Our regular group consists of acoustic and electric guitars, bass guitar, keys, piano, and drums/percussion. We also hope to expand our worship instrumentalists to include orchestral instruments in the near future! Our worship instrumentalists rehearse on Wednesday nights at 7pm.
Our Adult Choir assists in leading worship each week. This group also regularly shares specials with a desire to encourage our congregation through telling the story of the gospel. From the choir, those interested in taking another step in worship leadership are invited to sing on our Praise Team. This group of 4-6 vocalists at a time who lead on an as-scheduled basis in our weekly worship services. While Praise Team leadership is preceded by a meeting with our Minister of Music/Worship, our choir is open to any adult able to participate in rehearsals and services. Worship Choir rehearsal is on Sundays at 4:30 pm.
As mentioned before, we place a high priority on instilling a heart for worship and worship leadership in kid’s hearts at a young age. We offer several different choirs for children and seek to engage them in music and worship in exciting ways and provide opportunities for them to share and lead in our worship services. Our kid’s choirs meet on Sundays at 6pm.
Our Tech Team has grown in the recent past as we have grown and expanded our media ministry. We are always looking for tech-savvy people to join our team! Opportunities for service include running sound (for Worship Center or Live Stream); operating the lyrics and lighting computers; operating a video camera; and operating our live-streaming equipment. This team is open to 9th-12th grade students and adults. Contact our Minister of Music/Worship to join this exciting team!
