The United Church of Christ boldly proclaims that “no matter who you are or where you are on life’s journey, you are welcome here.” Music that is invitational has a powerful potential of reaching many people from diverse age groups, musical abilities and theological perspectives. This topic may be divided into two workshops:
1. MUSIC AS EVANGELISM: Reaching out to those who are disenfranchised or not familiar with the Church and
2. MUSIC FOR EVERYONE IN WORSHIP: Creating vibrant musical experiences for all ages and people from diverse backgrounds.
Music as Evangelism We will explore numerous ways to reach out to people in your community through music including drum circles, Bible School, after school programs for children and youth, coffee houses, open microphone forums, and the use of musical groups in public places (parks, clubs, restaurants, sidewalk, etc).
