To God be the Glory!

Advanced Worship Arts Band Members are expected to be leaders in our Worship, Student, & Children’s Ministries while also being able to perform at an advanced level of proficiency vocally and on their instrument . This group will also have opportunities to be involved in evangelistic opportunities in our community and beyond.
ADVANCED BAND REQUIREMENTS & EXPECTATIONS
1. MAKE ALL BAND REHEARSALS.
Rehearsals are Two or Three Times a Month on Sunday Afternoons.
2. MUST KNOW HOW TO PLAY THEIR INSTRUMENT & SING AT AN ADVANCED LEVEL.
Keyboard | Acoustic Guitar | Electric Guitar | Bass Guitar | Ukulele | Drums
*Vocal opportunities will come as soon as you are able to hold down an instrumental part. We do not have Vocal-Only Spots in this Ministry.
3. MUST BE TEACHABLE & HAVE A HUMBLE, SERVANT-DRIVEN HEART & TEAM-FIRST MENTALITY.
It takes time, hard work, and dedication to learn to play an instrument and more importantly learn how to serve in a band setting. It will not happen overnight…but the more you practice the quicker you will be able to move up into a leadership role within the band.
4. MUST BE WILLING TO SET A POSITIVE EXAMPLE & TONE FOR OUR WORSHIP, STUDENT, & CHILDREN’S MINISTRIES & OUR CHURCH
Band Members will be required and expected to lead out in worship & encouragement on and off the stage. It is a life-style not a performance.
5. MOST IMPORTANTLY: THE WORSHIP ARTS BAND EXISTS TO LEAD OTHERS IN PRAISE & WORSHIP OF OUR HOLY & AWESOME TRIUNE GOD.
We do not perform so that we can entertain or impress our friends and family or to bring any glory to ourselves.
We lead our brothers and sisters in Christ so that we all can give our best & highest praise to our Lord and Savior who is worthy of all our praise.
We play for an audience of ONE.
