     Music & Worship Ministries

 

                

Make a joyful noise unto God; all ye lands.

Sing forth the honour of his name: make his praise glorious.

Psalm 66:1-2

Welcome! We are so glad that you have connected to the web site of the Music & Worship Ministry at Antioch. Whether you sing or play an instrument, you will find a multitude of opportunities to use your gifts for the Lord at Antioch. It is our desire that the Holy Spirit would be able to move in our presence each and every week as one team of "lead-worshipers' seek to lead God’s people into His presence.

Our goal as a music department is to create an atmosphere of worship that you will never forget.  With God’s help our goal seems to occur every time we meet.  If you are interested in joining one of our choirs, attend the next practice and promise to be faithful.  It’s that easy! 

Adult Choir: The Adult Choir at Antioch is the primary leadership group of the ministry. This group is challenged each week to work together as one team of worship leaders. They are encouraged to have a strong personal worship experience that will spill over into "alive" corporate worship as they lead on Sunday.  The Adult Choir is open to any person (High School and up) without audition. This group meets every Sunday evening following the worship service. For more information about this group, contact the music office at 831-5313.

 

Instrumental Ministry: The instrumental ministry of Antioch is a very vital and growing part of what takes place in worship every week.  This group puts the icing on the cake and takes this ministry to a whole new level.  Openings in this ministry are filled by audition. For more information about this group, contact the music office at 831-5313.

 

Adult Ensembles: These worship teams consist of a selected group of six people that serve as an ensemble member for the period of one month. This group is scheduled to sing several times throughout that particular month. All members of this group must be an active member of the  Adult Choir. For more information about this group, contact the music office at 831-5313.

 

Student Choir: Antioch Student Choir is comprised of 7th-12th grade students from all area schools. This group participates in the worship services at different times throughout the year. Antioch student choir generally does one musical a year. For more information about this group, contact the music office at 831-5313.

Children's Choirs: Our Children’s Choirs consists of two groups:

  • Kingdom Kids:  (Ages 7-12) Meet every Sunday evening at 5:30 PM.
  • Little Praisers: (Ages 4-6) Meet every Sunday evening at 5:30 PM
  • Our children’s choirs are lay-led as they prepare to lead in worship each month throughout the year and present a special musical in the winter. For more information about this group, contact the music office at 831-5313.

Technical Ministries: Antioch Technical Ministry carries the responsibility of enhancing spoken and sung communication as well as over seeing theatrical lighting and video projection for all worship services. Each team is made up of lay-members who are scheduled to work at least one service each week. Every individual is trained for his or her job in one particular area (lighting, sound, video projection). For more information about this group, contact the music office at 831-5313.
