Kid's Choir

Open to K-5th grade students. They meet Sunday mornings at 10:15 am for rehearsal in room E-1. The thrust of this program is to learn how to become worship leaders and to learn the language of music. The group sings in worship once a month.
        

11th Hour Band

The 11th Hour Band provides worship leadership in both the 9:00 am and 11:00 am services. Practice schedules vary during the year. The band is made up of dedicated and talented musicians, singing and playing a variety of instruments, who want to use their gifts to serve the Lord and to help others engage in worship. Interested musicians will be asked to audition or to submit recordings.

Accompanist

Our Organ is the 1982 Rosales Opus 9 Tracker and is played by our accomplished organist/pianist, Ben Mason. He plays preludes and offertories, and accompanies the hymns and anthems. Ben leads the musical worship in the 9:00 am worship service using his beautiful instrument as accompaniment. Ben is also a composer/conductor, you might just hear one of his compositions during the prelude, offertory, or postlude.
