ALDERSGATE'S MUSIC MINISTRY
Serve the Lord with gladness;
come before his presence with singing.
-Psalm 100:2
Because Aldersgate is a large church with various backgrounds, musical tastes, and education, we offer several Sunday worship options with a wide variety of musical choirs and ensembles presenting a diverse selection of music and programs.
OUR MUSICAL GOALS:
-
For all of our choirs to lead in worship of God. To point the hearts and minds of all of our members towards the praise and worship of God, the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
-
To enhance the ministry of Aldersgate in all areas of our church, community, nation, and world.
-
To enable all ages and skills to participate.
-
To encourage the offering of the best that our talents are able to offer.

As the heart is the center of human physical vitality, so is singing at the center of our Christian faith. For centuries Christians have learned that one of the easiest ways to discover and learn our faith is to sing our faith. Music is one of God's greatest gifts to us. We believe participation in a choir or ensemble is an avenue of service for those who have been given the gift of music.
We encourage you to become an active part in our Aldersgate Music Ministry. Our total Music Ministry includes over 160 different adults, youth and children who are actively involved. Choirs, vocal and instrumental ensembles and worship teams are available for every age from 3 years old through Senior Adult. Whether your talent is great or small, whether your age is young or old we have a place for you in our Aldersgate Music Ministry.
