Serving the Lord through worship

Please take a moment to review the expectations and requirements for serving on the Heritage Worship Team.

What We Value

Thank you for your interest in the worship team at Heritage. We value skilled, humble, trust-worthy, and teachable team members who have a heart to lead the church in worship and magnify our Savior.

Requirements for Participation

You are living a life that brings glory to our Savior. We are not looking for perfection, but for a life that has a heart to grow and yield to the Holy Spirit as He speaks to us in our sanctification process. This would include that you are growing in the Word at Heritage.

Align with Beliefs - Please review Heritage’s Statement of Faith and ensure alignment with these beliefs as part of serving on the worship team.

Expectations

Team members must be able to meet the time commitment below:

Sunday Services: 5 hours (7:30am-12:30pm)
Special Events: 7 hours (includes rehearsal & event time)

*These times do not include personal practice time*


Worshippers must be able to sing or play confidently on Sunday what was given to them to practice throughout the week.

Due to our limited corporate worship practices, it is essential for all worshippers to arrive confidently prepared for Wednesday's rehearsal and Sunday's soundcheck. This means consistently practicing at home throughout the week using the ChartBuilder app.

Worshippers should consistently engage in a Sunday worship service under the Word here at Heritage. We encourage you to sit in the auditorium after you have served.
