"Your worship must engage your spirit in the pursuit of truth. That's the kind of people the Father is out looking for: those who are simply and honestly themselves before him in their worship." John 4:23 The Message
We serve an incredibly creative and expressive God who furiously loves us and created us in His image. As such, we find ourselves drawn to reflect that deep love and creativity through the use of music, art, dance, drama, lighting, media and more. Therefore, we believe it’s our calling to create a sacred space for the church to connect with the creative God who is so deeply in love with us, so that He may increase and we might decrease.
Music Teams
Music Teams are typically made up of vocalists and a rhythm section. Our rhythm section is made up of acoustic guitar, keys, drums, electric guitar and bass guitar. On occasion we have opportunities for other instruments such as brass, woodwinds and strings. Our teams lead for the Sunday morning services. Music Team rehearsal is Thursday evening from 7:00pm-9:00pm in the Worship Center. For more info on how to get involved, contact Mike Haynes in the church office at 732-9107.

Media is a vital part of helping create an atmosphere of worship on Sunday mornings. If you’re interested in working as a light tech, media tech or sound tech we have opportunities for you.

Children's Music
We have three Children's Choirs that offer children a great time of worship, and opportunities to minister through music. The Choirs meet on Wednesdays from 6:00 - 6:40pm. The kids will also sing a couple of times a year in our worship services.

We also offer a Summer Music Camp in June.

Art
If you have a passion for art, we have a place for you. Throughout the year we use art in our Worship Services as another form of expression of our worship to God. We also have opportunities for various forms of art to be used on campus and in the community. If you’d like to be part of this ministry as it develops, please contact Mike Haynes.
Drama/Video
Drama is a powerful tool in portraying truths of who God is in our lives and the realities that we each face daily. At Neighborhood we’re in the pioneering stage of creating a Drama and Video production ministry that allows both Actors and Videographers to work together to create videos that can draw us deeper into our times of worship and connect our hearts and minds to God’s Word. If you’re interested in being part of this ministry, contact Mike Haynes.
Ushers
Do you like meeting new people and helping folks feel at home? We have opportunities to serve as an usher during our morning worship services.For more information contact Kelly Thomas.
Prayer Ministry
A ministry dedicated to serving the people of Neighborhood after Sunday services. We offer prayer, encouragement, support, a listening ear or a shoulder to cry on - we join people where they are at. For more information contact Mike Haynes.
Dance
This is a ministry that has not yet been developed at Neighborhood, but one we’d like to see take shape. If you have any experience in Dance Ministry or would be interested in being part the ministry, please contact Mike Haynes.
Stage Design Team
As we seek to create an atmosphere where people can connect with God we also need contractors, carpenters, decorators, and others to help us with stage design. Stage design changes frequently as we shift through seasons of the year and as we change Sermon Series’. If you’d like to be part of this team, please contact Mike Haynes. |
