As followers of Jesus, we come together for regularly for worship, our expression of prayer as a community. God meets us in these gatherings to shape us into vessels of God's love. Serving in worship ministries is a fantastic way to help others experience the presence of God and to draw closer to God in your worship. We would love to have you join one of these opportunities for ministry.
