Music
…sing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs to one another, singing and making melody to the Lord in your hearts. Ephesians 5:19
The music ministry at Christ United Methodist Church creates an atmosphere of reverence, joy, and praise to encourage our congregants to connect with God on a deeper level. Music has the power to reach people in a way that spoken words cannot, and can help convey important messages and themes in a more accessible and memorable way. Interested in using your musical gifts and talents in service to others, fostering a sense of community and purpose? We invite you to be a part of one of our many music ensembles at Christ Greensboro!
