Music Ministry:

“Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly; teach and admonish one another in all wisdom; and with gratitude in your hearts sing psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs to God.”

 --Colossians 3:16

As has been the case in Judeo-Christian worship for centuries, music plays a strong role in worship at Mount Zion.  We utilize a variety of styles (traditional hymns, southern gospel music, contemporary music, and praise and worship songs) in an effort to make worship meaningful to many people.  Our worship services are enhanced through playing of a grand piano and an organ.

Music is led in worship by the Chancel Choir.  This group practices on Wednesday evenings at 7:00 and is open to youth and adults.  Two cantatas are presented by this choir each year in addition to Sunday anthems.

Mount Zion has three octaves of Malmark handbells and three octaves of Malmark choirchimes. These are used by our adult handbell choir to enhance our worship services.  This choir practices at 5:00 on Sunday evenings. In January we will be trying to form a youth handbell choir as well.  This choir will practice at 6:00 on Sunday evenings.

In addition to our choirs, we have many talented individuals who bless us by sharing their God-given talents and providing special music for our services. These talented individuals range in age from 5 to over 80 and share their voices and instrumental talents.  We strongly encourage worshippers to praise God through music at Mount Zion.
