This workshop is designed for music ministry workers across the US, especially choir conductors/pianists, hymnal service leaders/pianists, and songwriters/lyricists/composers. Church council members overseeing church choirs and hymnal worship services are also encouraged to attend.

During the workshop, we will study and discuss important concepts related to music ministry from the praises in the book of Revelation. We will also have breakout sessions to go over the guidelines on how to select/review suitable music pieces for choirs and hymnal worship services, the new compositions guidelines approved by USGA, the US church choir guidelines under consideration, the essential understanding of the copyright laws (pertaining to the use/display/presentation/recordings/derivatives of both the copyrighted/non-copyrighted hymns from our hymnal as well as other Christian music), and the music ministry resources available through the IA/USGA.
All relevant and interested music ministry workers are encouraged to attend and help pray together for this sacred music workshop. For any questions, please contact the Music Ministry Committee at music.ministry@tjc.org. NOTE: Information on how to join the online workshop will be sent out later.
