Join the College/Career Choir

We've got a choir for college/career age adults. They meet Thursday nights at 6:00 p.m. in the choir room (134). If you are  interested in this music opportunity, please e-mail Pastor Jay or just show up!

Worship is a central act of the Church. At Vista Grande music is a primary tool in our worship. The purpose of music is to facilitate the people’s expression of praise and adoration. God is the God of infinite variety. In our music worship we seek to emulate that variety using resources from a large spectrum of genres to contribute to a vibrant worship experience.

We utilize songs that have stood the test of time, songs that have become standards in just the last few years, and songs that may only be for today but help us to communicate with God nevertheless. This pattern of planning enables us to worship together, across the generations, through music. Our heart’s desire is to worship God the way He wants to be worshiped. We invite you to worship with us through music, drama, and the declaration of the Word.
