join us for church on sunday: 
9am or ​10:55am 

The music we play creates an environment to connect your heart to God and others. We’ll sing new songs from churches around the world and centuries-old hymns. We make music to please God and to build others up. Colossians 3:16 says, “Sing psalms and hymns and spiritual songs to God with thankful hearts.” For us, that’s what making music is all about. Our songs are a celebration of who God is and what He is doing in the Church.
