Orchestra Debuts in the Evening Service

The new instrumental ministry / church orchestra debuted tonight in the evening service. As of now, the group consists of a piano, a synthesizer, a flute, a clarinet, a trumpet, and a violin. We played as the accompaniment for the main song service at the beginning of the service.

I thought it sounded very good and it seemed to be a welcome addition to our worship experience as the congregation was, at time, singing loud enough for me to hear over the trumpet which was less that 3 feet from my ear. I'm looking forward to playing more with this group and seeing it grow as time goes on.

The children's choir also did a presentation of a musical named Sticky Notes and Bible Quotes. Unfortunately, I was unable to catch their performance as I had to step out at that time to pick my wife up from work.
