Glorifying God
"Glorify the Lord with me, let us exalt His name together." Psalms 34:3
Encountering God
"My eyes have seen the King, the Lord Almighty." Isaiah 6:56
Building up the Body
"Therefore encourage one another and build each other up." 1 Thessalonians 5:11
Glorifying God? Encountering God? Building up the body? This is what worship is all about! At Riva Trace our goal every Sunday morning is to help you praise God, encounter Him, and to be encouraged through a time of authentic worship.
Worship Team & Special Events Ministries
Our worship team of spiritually committed and musically talented vocalists and instrumentalists leads worship during all Sunday mornings services. During special events and Christian holidays, a worship choir performs to add energy to our time of worship. If you would like to go beyond corporate worship and serve God through music, we encourage you to either audition for our worship team or get involved with special events such as our Easter Drive-thru, Christmas Dessert Theater and worship choir.
Technical & Creative Ministries
Riva Trace also uses technical ministries and creative ministries to further enhance worship by utilizing sound, video and lighting, as well as drama, writing, video productions and art during services and special events. While some of this work is behind the scenes, both the obvious and unseen are valuable to the overall worship experience. If you would like to be a part of either of these worship ministries, we welcome your service.
Mission
To serve God through a ministry of music and the creative arts, with an excellence and humility that is attained through our individual and collective submission to God, and the power and presence of the Holy Spirit; to spiritually prepare, encourage and lead people into a growing, dynamic worship relationship with God.
