MUSIC MINISTRY

The Children’s choirs are open to all children grades 1-5. Our Music Makers choir is for grades 1-3 and our Young Musicians choir is for grades 4-5. Each choir participates periodically in the worship services and sings throughout the year at special events. The Music Makers choir is directed by Mandi Beckham, Kerri Darby, and Mary Chow. The Young Musicians choir is directed by Sarah Lou Moose, Beth Eubank, and Donna Tarver. The children’s choirs rehearse every Wednesday from 6:00-7:00 p.m.

Vocalist & Instrumentalist
Here at First Baptist Church we strive to provide a variety of opportunities for those gifted in music to use their gifts for the glory of God.  We also want to provide the opportunity to praise and worship our Lord and to lead others to do the same. Anyone interested in performing a solo, vocal or instrumental, should contact the minister of music.

 

MUSIC ALL AROUND

Is your home a musical home?  Do you sing, play, and dance to music with your children or spouse?  I have found music to be a wonderful way to add richness and warmth to your everyday life.  Give this a try some evening:  1) Turn off the t.v.  2) put on some soft hymns or praise and worship music  3) Sit down on the floor or at the kitchen table and play a game with your family.  I promise that will be a time with your family you will not regret. 

Martin Luther said it best when he said "Music is a fair and glorious gift of God."  Use that fair and glorious gift to enrich the lives of your family. 

LIVE THE LYRICS!

Worship Quotes:
"Too often my worship is tamed by the complications of this world. But I long to be in place where my fire for God cannot be quenched or washed away, even by the mightiest rivers of opposition-I long for a worship that can never be extinguished."
Matt Redman
"The Unquenchable Worshipper"

"One of the greatest problems of our times is that we have become so nonchalant about the Lord of the cosmos. Certainly if we were more immersed in God's splendor we could find ourselves thoroughly 'lost in wonder, love, and praise.'"
Marva Dawn
"A Royal Waste of Time"

Scripture of the Week
"Restore us, O God Almighty; make Your face shine upon us; that we may be saved."          Psalm 80:7
