Worship Ministry Purpose

Worship Ministry Goal
It Is Our Goal To Glorify His Name!
Music/media is a very important part of worship at Mountain View and is an important part of God’s kingdom. As soon as Samuel anointed David as king, God thrust him into his first ministry: Music (I Samuel 16:18). David appointed 228 musicians for duty who were “trained and skilled in music for the Lord” (I Chronicles 12:7). “Sing a new song; play skillfully, and shout for joy” (Psalm 33:3). That is our goal as worship team members.

Worship Ministry Core Convictions
1. Our first and greatest commandment is to love God with all our heart, soul, mind and strength. Worship is loving God. We believe our Worship Ministry should provide praise and worship that is alive and vibrant. No matter the style, it must be uplifting and full of passion.
2. Our second commandment is to love each other. We believe our ministry team should have healthy and growing relationships with each other and the rest of the church body. We want our ministry to be a place where love for each other is the norm.
3. We want our ministry to have a strong vision and sense of direction that is constantly evaluating all it does to make sure it is fulfilling the purpose God has given us.
4. We want our ministry to have a systematic process for maturing disciples and placing people within the ministry.
5. We want our ministry to be flexible to meet the ministry challenges and needs that are immediately present without being bogged down in red tape.
6. We want our ministry to be where sharing Jesus is done out of an overflow of love for Him not out of guilt or coercion.
7. We believe our ministry should be more focused on reaching people of all ages rather than preserving the traditions of the past.
8. We want our ministry to place high value on and encourage learning, leadership development, and equipping.
9. We believe praying is an integral part of worship and should be a priority for members and team practices.

Worship Ministry Requirements
All members of the Worship Ministry must be saved and a member of Mountain View.
All members are expected to attend weekly rehearsals in order to be a part of the Worship team on Sunday.
Every volunteer must regularly attend Sunday morning services as a member of Mountain View. It is important, as a leader within the church, which you continue to be fed with the Word of God; so that you will be able to grow in your relationship with the Lord and set the proper example for others within your church family.
All new volunteers in the Worship Ministry will have a three-month Grace Period to experience the environment and expectations of their Team. During this time they will receive training, get to know their teammates, and try their hand at ministry. This Grace Period allows both the volunteer and the team time to adjust, learn, and see if the ministry is a fit for the new volunteer.
Everyone involved must have a teachable spirit and be dedicated to growing in their relationship with God. A servant’s heart and humility are a must. If you have the heart of a worshiper and want to serve in whatever capacity you are most needed, you will be an asset to our team.

More than a Ministry. We're a Family!
We in the Worship Ministry come together not only to serve in worship, but also to care for each other as a family. We fellowship, disciple, encourage, communicate, care, love and pray for each other and the ministry. We believe that we will be more than just a collection of people if we are faithful in these things: We will be a family!
