We are looking for a Christian to lead our congregation in singing our faith to God as part of our worship service by playing the piano (or organ). Although their focus is leading songs the Worship Leader should strive to enhance the congregation's focus on other aspects of the worship service outside of singing such as the scripture readings or sermon text for the day. The ideal candidate will be up for the challenging opportunity to introduce some contemporary songs and music into our services and to encourage current and new members to use their musical abilities in service to the church.

This position requires a deep passion for worshiping God through music and leading others in worship. The Worship Leader will play a vital role in creating an atmosphere of praise and adoration during our church services. If you have a heart for serving the Lord and leading others in worship and possess the necessary musical skills, we would love to hear from you.

We teach and confess that the Bible is inerrant. The Bible itself, as the inspired and infallible Word of God that speaks with final authority concerning truth, morality, and the proper conduct of mankind, it is the sole and final source of all that we believe.
