Music Ministry
“Next to the Word of God, music deserves the highest praise. The gift of language combined with the gift of song was given to us that we should proclaim the Word of God in Music.” Martin Luther
Immanuel’s Music Ministry offers ample opportunities for you to “proclaim the Word of God in Music.” Take a moment to consider how you can be a part of this vibrant ministry at Immanuel.

as you teach and admonish one another with all wisdom
through psalms, hymns, and songs from the Spirit,
singing to God with gratitude in your hearts."
