Worship is one of the essential aspects of the Christian life. Our worship time during our weekend services is a culmination of a week’s worth of worshipping God through our daily walk with Him. Worship includes the music we sing and play to God. The Bible makes it very clear that “God inhabits the praises of His people!” Our desire is that our worship and praise be pleasing to Him, that He will manifest His presence in our services in such a way that hearts are changed and lives are drawn closer to Him, and that hearts are prepared to receive a message from God’s Word through our Pastor.

CELEBRATION ORCHESTRA

Psalm 150:3-6 “Praise Him with the sound of the trumpet: praise Him with the psaltry and harp. Praise Him with the timbrel and dance: praise Him with the stringed instruments and organs. Praise Him upon the loud cymbals: praise Him upon the high sounding cymbals. Let everything that hath breath praise the Lord.”

Every week the Celebration Orchestra accompanies congregational worship and presents instrumental features for our Sunday services. The Celebration Orchestra is open to high school students through adults who have a basic level of musicianship on their chosen instrument.

We meet for rehearsals each Wednesday evening from 6:00-7:00pm in the worship center and for pre-service warm-ups on Sundays at 8:10am and 5:00pm. In addition, we meet one night each month for a “super rehearsal” where we spend time learning new music.

CELEBRATION CHOIR

Psalm 34:1-3 “I will bless the Lord at all times: His praise shall continually be in my mouth. My soul shall make her boast in the Lord: the humble shall hear thereof, and be glad. O magnify the Lord with me, and let us exalt His name together.”

The Celebration Choir at Mid-Way Baptist Church is a vibrant group of almost 100 people who provide music for each Sunday morning and evening service and help lead the congregation in worship. The Celebration Choir sings a wide variety of music and has recorded two music projects and provides special dramatic musicals for Easter, Independence Day and Christmas each year.

DRAMA

The drama ministry of Mid-Way is an integral part of the worship service and special Music Ministry productions throughout the year. In our annual Christmas production, our drama casts have ranged from 20-45 people. Additionally, we use skits and props as a powerful way to convey truths that tie-in with Pastor’s message.
