Music Ministry
Come experience the fellowship, fun and fulfillment of participating in a musical ensemble. Our groups are uplifting, jubilant, caring, committed to Christ and one another. Being part of the music program contributes to the understanding of God and the experience of worship, allows the opportunity to be worship leaders, helps develop concepts of teamwork and cooperation and brings the Word to life through musical expression.
The mission of La Casa de Cristo’s Music Department is to proclaim the word of God through music, serving as an instrument to reach out to the soul, to help comfort, inspire, persuade, convince and motivate in spirit and truth
