Music Ministry
Perfecting the Saints through Praise and Worship. ~ Revelation 4:8-11
 
Mission and Purpose:

Our mission is to lift up the name of Jesus Christ through songs and praises, reaching out to His people and to live the life according to the Word of God. 

 

Our purpose in the Ministry of Music is to follow Christ.  Secondly, we are to bring forth the gospel of Jesus Christ through the ministry of music. God has a purpose for us to minister to His people in such a way that touches the souls, the minds and the hearts to inspire those who may be searching to find their way.

The Goal for the Columbia District Music Ministry

(This will be a requirement for Pastors, Ministers of Music, Musicians, Choir Directors & Choir members to be in attendance.)

·         To help the local churches in our district to find musicians who has the love for the AME tradition and willing to work with a loving congregation.

·         Develop a Hand Bell Ministry, Praise Dance Ministry, and Young Adult Choir.

 

 

The Musicians Prayer (for musicians and singers)

Oh Lord, please bless this music that it might glorify your name. May the talent that you have bestowed upon me be used only to serve you. Let this music be a witness to your majesty and love, and remind us that you are always watching, and listening, from your throne above. May your presence and beauty be found in every note, and may the words that are sung reach the hearts of your people so they will draw closer to you. May your Spirit guide us through every measure so that we might be the instruments of your peace, and proclaim your glory with glad voices.

AMEN!
