I'm New! How do I join Music Ministry?

Learning and putting together different music every week can be challenging for some, so we want to make sure that this will be enjoyable for all involved and not an exercise in frustration! If you’re new to music ministry here, we want to hear you make some music with Linda or Luke before committing to joining. Or, if music technology is more your speed, you can join the crew of sound board technicians!
