A Place for All People

Music Ministries

 
 
Music Ministry at Trinity

The goals of music ministry at Trinity are to assist our church family in worship and to develop the talents we have been given.  We believe that when we use our talents for God's glory, they become gifts that place focus on God.  Our talents become gifts that God can use.

Opportunities to participate:
 
Choir

The Adult Choir rehearses on Wednesday evenings from 7:00-8:15pm in the choir room.  Membership is open to persons from 7th grade through retirement age!  We would love to have more voices as we prepare for fall worship services and our Christmas presentation.  If you are considering choir, but unsure about the weekly commitment, come visit for a week or two.  We take our responsibility seriously, but you might be surprised to learn how much laughter we share together each time we meet!  Come give us a try!  Contact me at 276-322-1999 or any Sunday after worship. 
The Ecumenical Youth Choir will meet on Sunday evenings from 5:00-5:45pm at First Baptist Church on College Avenue starting August 29th.  Youth in grades 6-12 from all area churches are invited to participate.  Many styles of music are used to enable youth to worship God and experience spiritual growth.  The choir sings in each church represented(including Trinity) approximately once each year.  For more information contact the director, Bryant Moxley, at 276-322-1999.
 
Handbells
 
Would you be interested in an ongoing or occasional handbell group?  Various configurations and levels of commitment are possible.  Please let me know of your interest!
 
Music for Children and Preschoolers
 
The pastor and I are considering various options for musical experiences with children and older preschoolers and we need your input!  What ideas do you have?  What are the best times to provide these experiences?  After school? Wednesday before Adult Choir?  Twice monthly after morning worship?  Another time?  Can you provide names and contact information of families who might be interested in participating?  Are there children who attended VBS that we could encourage?  Would you be willing to provide non-musical assistance such as securing snacks, assisting the lead teacher, etc.?  Please share your ideas with Susan or me.  We value your input!
 
Come, join us as we seek to "Make a joyful noise unto the Lord..."!  (Psalm 100:1)
