Delighting in God!
With Music and Worship
Sing to Him a new song . . .
Play skillfully with a shout of joy!
Psalm 33:3
I will bless the Lord at all times; His praise will continually be on my mouth.
Psalm 34:1

|
There are various areas of service that presently make up the LEFC Music/Worship Ministry. Each area of serice requires specific levels of skill, training and spiritual maturity. It is our desire to provide opportunities for people to use their worship related gifts in ministry at LEFC. |
How can I serve?Following are the areas of Music and Worship where you can serve as part of the Family of Grace at LEFC:

Praise Band Three teams of musicians and singers serve in leading the congregation in corporate worship. Individuals who serve on these teams must be committed to Christ and to serving Him with their lives as well as their musical gifts. The use of these gifts needs to be solely for the glory of God. New members are brought onto a team after meeting with several members of the Music/Woprship Advisory Team for "Review." Interested individuals should contact Ken Martin.
Choirs Choir Projects provide opportunities for anyone to use their love for music and singing to honor God. Specific projects are scheduled for various age groups and seasonal events. Choir information will be published in teh Servants' Voice when relevant.
A Cappella Ensemble The A Capella Ensemble is a chamber choir that glorifies God through vocal music from many styles and periods. Individuals in this group need to be music sight readers with excellent vocal ability.

Worship Dance is a welcome aspect of worship in our services. This expression of worship is to lift up Jesus with outward expressions of the body. Choreographed worship dance may be presented by groups of children or adults as well as soloists. Free worship dancers, those who worship during congregational worship, are welcome to use open areas in the rear or along the side of the auditorium or in the lobby. Contact Sharon Roseboro for more information.

Pre & Post Service Music This group of musicians provide instrumental music before and after worship services. Music before services provides a backdrop for fellowship and an indicator for the start of the service. Music after the service sets an atmosphere for prayer and fellowship. Ken Martin serves as the schedule coordinator for these muscians.
