Music Ministries
Music is a vital way to express faith.
Both singing and listening transports us to another dimension of our faith. At Community of Faith, a variety of musical groups enhance our weekly worship.
The Praise Team is an inter-generational group accompanied by piano, guitar, drums and occasionally other instruments like the flute, a fiddle, or djembe offering many contemporary Christian praise songs. This team also rehearses on Thursdays from 6:30 - 7:30 PM all year.
There's Always Room
Do you love to sing, play an instrument. Hum really well? There's always room in the choir or for praising God through a variety of musical gifts. Just contact Mary Ann East, music director, to explore how you might contribute to the worship experience through music.
