Praise & Worship Team Strategic Intent
Vision & Mission Statement
Usher in the Holy Spirit through praise and worship.
Foundational Scripture: Exodus 33:15-17
“And he said unto him, If thy presence goes not with
me, carry us not up hence. For wherein shall it be
known here that I and they people have found grace in
thy sight? is it not in that thou goest with us? so shall
we be separated, I and thy people, from all the people
that are upon the face of the earth.
And the Lord said unto Moses, I will do this thing also
that thou hast spoken: for thou hast found grace in
my sight, and I know thee by name.”
