Drama

If you’re ready to use your gifts and want to be a part of an amazing ministry, then come join our team! These are the different areas in this ministry where you can serve:

Props: If you’re one who likes to find things then finding props for our dramas might be for you!

Costumes: If you enjoy sewing and designing costumes then we really could use your help.

Stage Crew: Now here’s a fun one! You get to dress in black and run around in the dark! What could be more fun than that? We are always looking for help with scene changes.

Acting: If you enjoy being quite the character then acting might be for you! This is one of the areas of our ministry that requires an audition.

Lighting: We are always looking for people to man the lights during a production.

Set Design: If you enjoy painting scenery or you’re gifted with a hammer then set design might be for you.

We have a lot of fun serving God through drama. If you are interested in joining the team, please contact Lisamacri@comcast.net

 

Would you like to join the Worship Team?

Here is what we do!!! To produce quality music and worship that glorifies God and encourages seekers and believers to draw closer to Christ during worship and praise.

 Could it be you? We continually seek those who wish to use their talents and gifts in the Worship Ministry. You may be a singer or play the instrument, the Lord wants and needs both. Those who volunteer for Worship have schedules change and because of that volunteers are needed all the time. We currently need musicians and worship singers. The more we have the better.

When would you be needed?  The Worship Team rehearse with others on Tuesday nights to practice for Sunday’s worship and to have our own worship and fellowship during that time. Sunday morning, we have worship rehearsal prior to Sunday service and then lead the congregation with corporate worship. If you think this may be you, please contact me. In Christ Love Ken Swist, Cell- 978-375-5958; E-Mail- keyofcandg@comcast.net

 

Special Music:  It’s time to dust off your instrument and blow out the cobwebs.  Or, if you like to sing, start your shower rehearsals!  Contact kimwhitten@comcast.net

 

Tech:  Are you tech savvy?  Do you want to share your gift with others?  The tech team could really use your help!  Contact Ed Burgess edndonnaburgess@comcast.net
