Worship Arts Minister



We use contemporary worship led by a band. The musical style we aim for is in the line of a David Crowder/Hillsong/Phil Wickham blend. Familiarity with Ableton Live is a plus. We are free to express worship in a way that exalts God and energizes His people. This person will work directly with the lead minister in the development of the worship setting and experience.


We are looking for a leader who is in love with the Lord and everything in life and worship flows from that relationship. Worship leading then becomes an extension and expression of the worshipping life.
