Contemporary Worship Band

Our Contemporary Worship Band currently consists of drums, bass guitar, electric and acoustic guitars, piano, several vocalists, and sound and media coordinators. Selections of music are from contemporary worship artists such as Chris Tomlin, Mac Powell, David Crowder, and Mark Roach. We also do modern arrangements of some excellent hymns; and original works from the band are included in our repertoire.

Rehearsal
The band practices Tuesday evenings. Instrumental practice begins at 6:30 and runs until 7:20. Vocalists arrive at 7:15. Practice for singers starts at 7:30 and goes until 8:00 - 8:15. There is a brief Worship Notes Bible Study discussion from 7:20 - 7:30.

On Sunday morning at 10:00, the worship team warms up and does a sound check. We also use this time to go over transitions and remember things from Tuesday night's practice. We are done by 10:35, and the service begins at 11:00.

If you cannot make it to practice, please let me know. You can call me at home or at the church. Feel free to e-mail me at any time and for any reason! I understand our lives get busy, and there may be Sundays or Tuesdays when you can’t make it or will be late. I may even have to cancel a Tuesday on a rare occasion!
