Music And Creative Arts Ministry

Praise the Lord, O my soul; all my inmost being, praise His holy Name. Psalm 103:1

Christ Church is home to many world-class musicians, songwriters, singers, authors, painters, and designers whose collective work has had no less than global impact.? We are a local parish with a global viewpoint and we absolutely love to worship the Risen Lord!

Our mission is to lead people into the manifest presence of a Holy God through music and the creative arts while calling forth the ministry gifts He has placed within our faith community.

The Music and Creative Arts Ministry of Christ Church encourages you to prayerfully consider your involvement in one of the following ministries:

Audio
When managed properly, the business of sound reinforcement will go completely unnoticed by the congregation. Because our aim is to enhance the worship service rather than to detract from it, a basic sense of sound and how it affects the listener is advantageous when ministering in this area.

Video
In addition to projecting song lyrics, liturgy and special presentations for the congregation, the video ministry has the potential to include video-linked live and recorded music, on-screen announcements and custom graphics. Basic computer skills and a familiarity with Word and PowerPoint are recommended for this ministry.

Drama
The Drama Ministry at Christ Church is not about performing on a stage but about being a tool in the hand of God to convey His truth to His people. All you need is a heart of humility, a desire to see God's truth made known, and a willingness to be part of a team.

Praise Band
If you are skilled on a musical instrument and know in your heart that you should be giving your God-given talent back to Him, then you should consider the Praise Band. It is the core of all things musical at Christ Church. Although it is not necessary that you be able to read music, you should be able to follow basic chord charts.

Praise Team
The purpose of this highly visible group of singers is to assist in leading the congregation into the presence of God. Therefore, they should have joyful hearts and a love for Him that is obvious as they worship. Although vocal competence is appreciated, it is not necessary that you be able to read music.

Worship Choir
The primary focus of the Christ Church worship choir is on praise and preparation rather than skill and performance. Reasonable memorization skills and a basic ear for music are very helpful but the most important prerequisite of all is a worshipful heart. At Christ Church, we love to worship!
