We are a people created with a deep, innate desire to worship, and our Worship Team’s mission is to live in such a way that when we gather in His house, praising Him becomes second nature. Our goal is to look to God, give Him all the glory, and lead others into His presence through worship. It’s all about Him, and we are honored to usher in His presence through praise.

Our Worship Team: Cody & Jen Cottengim, Jeri Beth Morrison, Angela Haworth, Gabby Sanders, and Bella Swearingen.
