The Worship Orchestra is a vital part of our worship experience, joining with the Choir and Praise Team each Sunday to lead in celebration and worship. They also present instrumental concerts at other times during the year, including: Summer in the Park, North Texas Band and Orchestra festival, and Sounds of the Season.Prospective members should be proficient on their instrument, will be auditioned and approved by the director, and should attend three consecutive rehearsals before playing for a worship service. The orchestra rehearses on Wednesday evenings at 7:00 p.m. in the Worship Center.
