Music Ministry
Shout with joy to God, all the earth!
Sing the glory of his name;
Make his praise glorious!
(Psalm 66:1-2)
There are several opportunities for you to be involved in the music ministry at Riveroaks. All you need is a desire to have fun, praise the Lord, and make a joyful noise! Please contact Terry Himebook with any questions or for further details.
