ORCHESTRA
Thanks to the Orchestra for their ministry during the 2007-08 ministry season. Enjoy your summer! We will be looking forward to beginning Orchestra rehearsals and sharing times in September.
The role of the orchestra is two-fold:
- To assist and lead the congregation in corporate worship through the singing of hymns, gospel songs, and choruses.
- To share anthems and seasonal music intended to inspire, to challenge, to encourage, and to reinforce our worship as believers in Jesus Christ.
