Immanuel has a thriving and exciting Worship and Music Ministry! It is a place to grow in your understanding of worship, a place for using your gifts in service, and a place to develop close friendships. Many vocalists and instrumentalists are needed to provide leadership in worship. Whether you are a child, youth, adult, vocalist, instrumentalist, actor, artist, or technician, there is a place for you!

If you would like to share your God-given musical talents, please contact Kathy Schlecht (Immanuel’s Director of Worship and Music Ministries at kschlecht@immanuelloveland.org or 970-667-4506) about where you might like to plug-in to the Music Ministry. Below is a brief description of what is currently available at Immanuel:
