VISION

Our vision is to “develop worshippers who impact the world around them.” We believe worship is a lifestyle response to a holy, omnipotent God. Praise is declaring what God has done, is doing, and will do. Worship is declaring who God is. We have an awesome responsibility: we are more than just musicians - we are worship leaders.

Covenant

1. Core

We aim to deepen our understanding of true worship and commit to worshiping God with our whole being. Worship is a lifestyle, and we strive to live sacrificially for Him.

2. Character

We seek Christ-likeness through prayer, private worship, regular Bible reading, Bible study, and living a life reflecting His likeness. We also commit to tithing and honoring God with our finances.

3. Craft

We recognize God's gifts and commit to excellence through practice, playing/singing as directed, being prepared for rehearsals and services, being open to changes, and attending required classes.

4. Community

We value healthy relationships within the Worship Ministry, committing to trust, encourage, resolve conflicts with forgiveness, walk in unity, be accountable, and have fun as a team.

Expectations

1. Preparation

  • Prepare spiritually by seeking God’s heart before rehearsals and services.

  • Access song lists on www.planningcenteronline.com.

  • Review audio recordings and sheet music; bring your own copies.

  • Practice and pray through songs for at least an hour within 24 hours of your service.

  • Memorize music to minimize reliance on charts.

  • Bring headphones for venues with In-Ear monitors.

2. Platform Presence

  • Body language is key to communication.

  • Platform presence matters as much as musicianship.

  • Follow leaders' guidance on presence.

  • Practice expressions in a mirror.

  • Lead sincerely, regardless of congregation engagement.

  • Engage warmly, especially with a smile.

  • Vocalists, keep the mic close and stay engaged.

3. Rehearsals

  • Praise team members are expected to attend Wednesday choir rehearsals at 6:45 PM to ensure unity, alignment, and community, enhancing team cohesion and worship.

  • Arrive early for rehearsals and services.

Dress Code

We prioritize worship over personal style, blending modern and classic pieces while remaining culturally relevant and modest.

  • Layer clothing (sweaters, jackets).

  • Use Pinterest, Banana Republic, Zara for inspiration.

  • No ripped jeans, graphic tees, or overly tight clothing.

  • Ensure sleeve and skirt length (no sleeveless, skirts knee-length or longer).

  • Choose a fabric that avoids visible silhouettes.

  • Perform a "MIRROR CHECK" for coverage and fit.
