Let the message of Christ dwell among you richly 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.
Colossians 3:16
At Eastminster, you can expect to sense God’s presence, God’s power, and God’s purpose. You will also feel the joy and warmth of the Body of Christ. We hope you will join us in worship & music!
Ways to Serve in the Worship & Music Ministry
When used for God’s glory, the spiritual gift of music inspires congregations to seek God’s heart. Do you have a musical gift? We would love you to serve in our worship & music ministry and help guide the emotions and spirits of our congregation to focus on the glory of our almighty God.

Baptisms
In Jesus Christ, God calls people to faith and membership in the Church, the body of Christ. Baptism is the visible sign of that call and claim on a human life and of entrance into the membership of the church.
Weddings
Marriage is a gift from God. Modeled after Christ’s love for the church and rooted in Genesis 2, “therefore a man leaves his father and his mother and clings to his wife and they become one flesh,” the couple make a covenant with God and one another. Mindful that marriage is both a gift from God and also a way to honor God, it is good and fitting that marriage vows are shared in the context of a special Worship Service, after pre-marital conversations have taken place. Recognizing the covenantal nature of marriage vows, Eastminster’s sanctuary is not available for public use. Eastminster members who would like to have their wedding ceremony in the sanctuary should contact the church.

Funerals
A funeral or memorial service is a witness to the resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ and a celebration of the life of the deceased. The service is based on the Lord’s Day Service, and the last word spoken always reveals the promise of eternal life through Jesus Christ.
