Worship & Music Ministry

“I will sing to the Lord as long as I live; I will sing praises to God while I have my being.”
Psalm 104:33, NRSV

The good news of God’s love for all people in Jesus Christ is celebrated and shared through Word and Sacraments. Holy Scripture is heard and taught through reading and preaching in a service of a historic liturgy set in contemporary music and language.

Worship and Music Ministry:

  • Ensures that worship services are conducted in accordance with the Scriptures, the Lutheran Confessions and the policies and guidelines governing worship practices of the Evangelical Lutheran in Church in America
  • Recruits and trains hosts, ushers, acolytes, lectors, communion assistants, assisting ministers
  • Recruits and trains individuals for Altar Care to maintain, repair or replace paraments, communion vessels, and vestments
  • Recruits and trains for the choir and musicians to support quality worship services
  • Prepares a schedule of assignments and ensures a person is assigned to each function (e.g., hosts, acolytes, ushers, lectors, etc.)
  • Submits minutes and reports five days before the Church Council meeting
  • Submits an annual report to the Church Council by the second Tuesday of December
  • Includes Minister of Music as an ex officio member
