Musicianship.
Discipleship.
Shared ministry.
The music apprenticeship helps older students develop their gifts through preparation, mentoring, and supervised ministry. It connects musical growth with spiritual maturity and a heart for the church.
As readiness grows, apprentices learn to support and lead the student worship band, prepare music, encourage their peers, and serve alongside adults.
How growth happens
Alongside first.
Responsibility over time.
Prepare
Learn the music before rehearsal. Grow in biblical understanding, musical skill, and reliability.
Serve together
Participate in shadow rehearsals and shared ministry with guidance and feedback.
Lead with care
Take increasing responsibility for songs, planning, and the student worship band as readiness grows.
A heart ready to learn
Gifting opens a door.
Character shapes a leader.
We look for a sincere love for Jesus, developing musical ability, a teachable spirit, faithfulness in preparation, and a growing desire to encourage others.
