Worship Team Participant Interest Questionnaire
Music plays a vital role in the worship services at White Rock Baptist Church. Music is associated with worship throughout scripture and the history of the church. It unites us as a body of believers singing praises to the God we worship. We believe music and musical talent is a gift from God to be used for His glory. 
A little bit about the Worship Ministry
The WRBC Worship Team is made up of volunteer musicians, vocalists, and sound/video technicians. Currently, the worship team is under the lay-leadership of team members who act as Service Directors, managing rehearsal time and worship services in conjunction with the pastoral staff. The team meets each Thursday at 7 pm, to rehearse music for Sunday morning worship services and again before each Sunday worship service at 7:30 am to review music. Worship team members typically spend time outside of these practice times practicing their own instruments and preparing their hearts for worship through personal Bible study and discipleship. 
 
Expectations for participating in the worship team include:
  • Participant must demonstrate commitment to the beliefs of White Rock Baptist Church, namely the Gospel of Jesus Christ as revealed in scripture.
  • Participants must be 14 years of age or older unless otherwise approved by leaders and pastor. 
  • Although participants are volunteers and are not required to be professionals, prior musical, audio, or visual experience that is relevant to the worship team’s efforts is beneficial.
  • Participants must be willing to work as part of a team and to accept direction from the service directors and/or pastors.
  • Participants must be willing to attend both Thursday rehearsal, 7 pm, and Sunday on the weeks they are scheduled to serve, arriving at or before 7:30 am. Participation in both rehearsals is necessary for each week a team member is scheduled. Prompt arrival at 7pm on Thursdays and 7:30am Sundays is expected.
  • Instrumental and/or vocal candidates will attend several Thursday rehearsals to demonstrate ability and commitment before being scheduled for a Sunday service. Candidates will be encouraged to meet with service directors, pastor, and other participants before joining Sunday morning as a worship leader. 
  • A/V technicians must also attend several Thursday rehearsals in order to demonstrate proficiency; however, candidates may be invited to shadow a current A/V member on Sundays before they are fully trained.
  • Candidates are expected to demonstrate punctuality regarding meetings or music ministry activities.
