Music at Grace Covenant
Music is one of the very best ways we pray. GCPC celebrates God’s gift of music with 12 ensembles encompassing all ages. Handbell choirs, instrumental ensembles and various vocal choirs provide amazing opportunities for all ability levels. We create the most beautiful music we can because God is worthy of our best efforts. There are no auditions. ALL are invited to participate.
Children’s music programs teach age-appropriate musical skills, celebrate faith through music and provide fun fellowship. Our music time includes singing as well as learning to ring handbells and handchimes.
Youth choirs and ensembles encourage reaching out to lead worship and to comfort others. Our senior high singers and ringers lead in worship throughout the year and take our music to places in the U.S. in need of comfort and community on their summer Mission & Music Trip. The middle & senior high school Youth Band plays in worship services at our church and at events throughout the Kansas City area.
Adult programs provide weekly worship leadership in two styles and special music for important times in the church calendar. There are opportunities for everyone from beginners to professional musicians. We also involve many non-musical volunteers to keep our enormous program organized and running smoothly.
Whether we sing from the choir loft, ring from a table or sing in the most important choir of all—the one sitting in the pews—all of us are transformed and lifted to God in sacred sound.
