The experience of making music as an expression of worship has been central to the Christian faith from the earliest days of the church. As we offer the gift of music in worship, we experience the joy and wonder of sharing Christ in a way that speaks directly to the heart of the listener. Embry Hills UMC welcomes all members of the church community to participate in the music ministry. Your time and talents are of great value, whether singing, playing, communicating, organizing, or supervising.
