• Schedule, organize, and lead weekly rehearsals with the worship team, focusing on spiritual and musical growth.
• Provide discipleship, encouragement, and spiritual guidance to worship team members.
• Ensure the stage and tech equipment are properly maintained and set up for each service.
• Incorporate creative elements that enhance the worship experience, including multimedia, special music, or other artistic expressions as appropriate.
• Participate in weekly staff meetings and contribute to the overall vision of the church.
Qualifications:
• A strong, personal relationship with Jesus Christ and a calling to lead others in worship.
• Experience leading worship in a church setting, preferably with both contemporary and traditional styles.
• Skilled vocalist and instrumentalist with the ability to lead worship while playing an instrument (e.g., guitar or keyboard).
• Ability to inspire, mentor, and develop a team of musicians and volunteers.
• Excellent organizational, communication, and interpersonal skills.
• Knowledge of worship-related technology, including sound systems, video projection, and presentation software.
• A team-oriented mindset with a heart for the local church and a commitment to unity in the body of Christ.
Benefits:
• Competitive salary based on experience and qualifications.
• Opportunities for professional growth and development.
• Supportive, loving church family and staff team.
