Psalms 150 “Praise the Lord! Praise God in the sanctuary; praise God in the mighty firmament! Praise God for mighty
deeds, according to God’s surpassing greatness! Praise God with trumpet sound, with the lute and harp! Praise with the
tambourine and dance, with strings and pipe! Praise God with clanging cymbals, praise with loud clashing cymbals. Let
everything that breathes praise the Lord! Praise the Lord! NRSV
Ministry
PPMCC’s Praise Team seeks to create an atmosphere for worship, bringing our own spirituality, talents, and time together,
to praise God.
We worship for God’s benefit. It is the Praise Team’s ministry to focus PPMCC’s attention on coming together as a
corporate body, lifting our hearts to God. When we are all singing, praising, and worshiping together, the very presence
of Spirit and power of God become evident as we invite Spirit into our music, encouraging the congregation to enter into
God’s presence.
Process
As with any ministry, PPMCC’s Praise Team involves your talent and time, and God’s calling. Praise & Worship is on
equal footing with the sermon and celebration of communion. As such, if there is an opening/position in the team, the
process is as follows:
