MUSIC MINISTRY

Music is an essential part of worship at Trinity Lutheran Church. It is a way to offer our thanks and praise and share our time, talent, and energy in service to our Creator and Lord. Music lifts the soul, opens our hearts, unites our spirits, and enriches our lives.

​

Many opportunities to serve through music can be found at Trinity. Children, beginning at age three, can participate in a graded choir program. Ensembles for youth and adults study and practice to provide great music for the worship services.

​

Instrumental music, from handbells to orchestra, is part of the greater musical experience.

​

You can serve through one of the ensembles; help with leading a choir, or by playing the piano or other instrument. And everyone can add their own "joyful noise" in the songs and hymns sung during worship!
