Music Ministry

Music at Signal Pres

For all people of Signal Pres and across all generations, we view music as a means to worship, teach biblical truths, equip us for Christ-like living, proclaim the gospel, and minister to the physical, emotional, and spiritual needs of those in our community and beyond. All are invited into that vision on Sunday mornings as we participate in worship and singing together.

Within a fairly structured order of worship, you’ll find our services include music that ranges from classic hymns with organ accompaniment to newly composed songs accompanied by a band. Oftentimes a choir, small ensemble, or soloist will help lead us. The 9 AM service has a traditional aesthetic with mostly hymns led by the choir, and the 11 AM, or Informal service, incorporates a more varied blend of styles usually led by a band

I love my "choir family!" We share each other's joys, concerns, sorrows,
and pray with and for each other. I always look forward to our times together.

-Mary Lynn, Sanctuary Choir

Whether you are an experienced musician or an enthusiastic amateur, there’s a place for you!.

There’s nothing better I can do with the talent God gave me than to offer it back to him in worship.
