What is Elevate?
Many churches—especially smaller churches—often have no outlet for ongoing volunteer development. This is unfortunate since that stifles ministries' growth in scope and excellence when there's often so much potential in the people God has brought together in the local body.
Elevate is a new, experimental process of developing the worship ministry at Rise Church so that the Heart, Head, and Hands of volunteers can be tended to with intentionality and, in turn, serve the congregation better. During these monthly sessions, we'll spend time together in worship, study, and skill-development so that each of us can do our part better. Skills will include subjects like playing together better as a band, leveraging online resources like Planning Center Online for personal preparation, techniques for programming and designing for Sunday, and cross-training so volunteers understand better how to communicate and appreciate what each person contributes on a Sunday morning. The skill for a given week will generally benefit many, but sometimes it will be more focused in personal application (e.g. playing together better as a band).
Our hope is to enrich our worship lives by sharing and growing together as we elevate God, Community, and Skills. These sessions are open to worship ministries from any church in the area who wishes to attend, so please bring a friend!
