1. Fill out an application - The Worship Team application covers general information about your musical experience and your personal walk with Christ that will help us get to know you better. Apply Here
2. Set up an interview - After you fill out the application, you will receive a copy of the Worship Team handbook and will be asked to set up an interview with Joe Effinger. The interview will give you an opportunity to ask questions and discuss the handbook and your application (music experience, testimony, etc.) in more detail.
3. Attend a rehearsal – Rehearsals are Monday nights from 6:45-8:30 PM. Vocalists meet at 6:15 to go over voice parts. It is our hope that this would give you more insight into all of the preparation and elements that go into practicing and preparing for weekend services. If you plan on attending one, just send Joe Effinger a quick email so that I know you are coming.
4. Audition - After attending a rehearsal, you will set up a time to audition. You will be given songs to prepare prior to the audition and will be required to play and/or sing using in-ear monitors and click/metronome. After completion of these steps and provided that you and the Worship Team Leader feel like you are ready, you will be added to the rotation. After your 3rd time serving on a weekend, Joe will follow up with you to offer feedback and see how you are doing. At this point, we will together determine if worship team is a good fit for you long-term.
