Music Ministry

Our music ministry offers choral and instrumental groups for all ages, attracting children from age four through adults from the congregation and the community. Trinity's Music Ministry offers an exceptional musical experience to participants by encouraging excellence, teamwork, commitment, creative development, and spiritual growth. There are no auditions, and previous musical experience is not needed. The only requirement is a desire to serve the Lord faithfully and joyfully.

"Hallelujah! Praise God in His holy temple; Let everything that has breath praise the Lord. Hallelujah! " (Psalm 150: 1,6)
