Worship Team – Are you interested in being part of the worship team that “creates a look” that goes along with the scripture?  You saw it happen for Pentecost with flames of fire.  You saw it happen during Lent as we created a worship table week after week while building on burlap cloth.  Visual greatly enhance our worship experience!
