Winnetka Presbyterian Church

Statement of Music
Children's Music at WPCIn our worship life, music serves as a profound form of spiritual expression that enhances our experience of the living, loving Word of God revealed in Jesus Christ.  Worshipful music communicates deep truths, awakens us to God’s presence, draws us together, and moves us to respond.  Therefore music in worship should be offered with care, faith, and passion.

In worship at Winnetka Presbyterian Church, music should further develop our understanding of the scripture lessons, sacraments, and liturgical seasons.  Our most authentic offering of music in worship is that which pours forth from the gifts and passions within our community.  Therefore we believe in a culture of music that is inclusive of people of all ages and abilities.  Our church is blessed with gifted singers, instrumentalists, composers, and dancers, presenting us with opportunities for unique, creative, and evocative worship.  

Winnetka Presbyterian Church is a community of faith that welcomes all people and extends our arms to embrace the whole world.  Worship that is welcoming and outreaching should reflect the diversity of people in God’s wide embrace.  Therefore we believe in presenting a diverse and balanced blend of music from around the world.  The sounds of our worship life should ensure that God’s Word is heard as rooted in tradition, relevant to the sounds and styles of our lives today, and always reaching for a new place together.
