We practice on Tuesday nights at 7:00pm and lead on Sunday mornings. You’re welcome to be as active as you want to be. Some of our members play most Sundays and some play once a month.

TECH TEAM: To enhance our worship services we try to be as creative and artistic as possible. Though it’s not the focus, the sights and sounds we create is an avenue of worship to our creative God. Light design, presentation, sound management, video recording/editing, and set design/construction are just some examples of roles available to help make much of God on Sundays and special services. We meet during rehearsals, worship services, and as needed. Training is available in all areas.
