music ministry


THE MUSIC MINISTRY AT WOODLAWN BAPTIST CHURCH EXISTS TO PROVIDE VOCAL LEADERSHIP AND INSTRUMENTAL ACCOMPANIMENT IN A WAY THAT SUPPORTS AND ENCOURAGES CONGREGATIONAL SINGING DURING CORPORATE WORSHIP.


Music serves as a means by which the Word of God is reinforced among us. As we sing, we rehearse biblical truth, teach and admonish one another, and encourage hearts to remain steadfast in faith. .


Joining our music ministry offers a chance to serve others, grow spiritually, and be part of a  community. Whether you're a seasoned musician or someone who loves to sing, your participation enriches our collective worship experience.


“Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly, teaching and admonishing one another in all wisdom, singing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, with thankfulness in your hearts to God.”
 — Colossians 3:16

congregational singing

The primary purpose of the Music Ministry is to encourage congregational singing (Col. 3:16) through both traditional hymns and contemporary songs. Our aim for the congregation is that they focus their hearts and minds on exalting Christ together through song.

Sunday morning rehearsal

On Sunday mornings from 8:15-9:30am, our ministry meets for rehearsal. The primary purpose of these times is to work through each song, making sure we can offer skillful accompaniment free of musical blunders or technical issues, so that our congregation can worship without distraction on Sunday morning.

Equipping & COMMUNITY

Our ministry will gather on occasion for times of additional theological and musical equipping. In the past, these occasion have been held either at a member's home or at our church facilities, and have included a time of teaching and discussion followed by  "jam sessions" where we can informally enjoy music together. These times have helped our ministry to become a true community that leads our church in worship each week.
