Music Ministry- Adult and Student opportunities

Music ministry is a wonderful way to become involved in our Church community. By leading our congregation in sung prayer and enhancing their experience through instruments, we hope to bring people to a more prayerful and inspirational experience within our worshipping community. All rehearsals start September 13th & September 14th in the Music Room – Church basement. If you are interested, and can not make a rehearsal time, please call to make other arrangements. No pre-registration is necessary. Donna Mae Kadrlik, Music Director 758-4207
