Worship Ministries

We believe that we are created to worship God and to glorify and praise Him with our voices, our actions, and our lives. Part of our worship on Sundays includes a time of singing praise and worship to God, and as such, there are opportunities to serve in this area:

Adult Choir: Our adult choir meets regularly throughout the school year, and performs at special services during the year (ie. Christmas/Advent and Easter). As well, this year the choir will be leading the worship service for 2 Sundays, serving as the worship team for those weeks. Choir is open to any individual who loves to sing, and wants to be involved.
Children/Youth Choir: In January, on Sunday afternoons, practices begin for our annual musical, which takes place in late April or early May. This is a fun, high energy, singing/acting/dancing musical with a message, that has become a highlight for the church family. The choir is open for children grades 1 - 6, with the main acting roles open for Jr/Sr high, and some minor roles/dance roles/solos being available for the elementary grades.
Orchestra: Although we don't utilize an orchestra on a regular basis, there are opportunities at Christmas and Easter to serve in this capacity. Our annual Christmas Eve services incorporate orchestral scores for prelude and congregational singing. Practices will begin in mid-November. Orchestration scores are intermediate to advanced.
Drama: This is a newly formed ministry at HHAC and we look forward to adding drama and sketches to Sunday mornings as well as other special events. If you like to act/write and have a passion for this ministry, we'd love to have you. Rehearsals will begin in late September.
Worship Teams: We have a rotating schedule of worship teams at HHAC who are committed and passionate about worship, as well as honing their skill as musicians. Involvement in worship teams involves an audition/interview process, and a formalized committment to a Godly lifestyle and accountability to other team members. If you are a skilled musician/vocalist and wish to pursue being involved on a worship team, please call the church office to set up an appointment.

More information about any or all of the above ministries can be obtained by contacting our Worship Pastor, Sherry Brown, at sherry@hhachurch.com, or by phoning 403 226 0990, *106.

The other side of worship ministries involves the technical area. This includes Sound, Mediashout, Lighting Crew, and Video Operation/Production. These areas, although technical, work closely with the musical side of the Worship Ministries.

Sound: If you're passionate about worship, and have a good ear for music, but are a better technician than musician, running the sound board is a great way to be involved. Specialized training and mentorship is provided, and this key area is an integral part of the worship teams. Typically sound techs serve on a once a month rotation.
Mediashout: Mediashout is the program we use for the visual production of song lyrics and videos on the projector screens each week. If you're computer savy, creative, and have an eye for detail, we would love to have you be involved with worship ministries in this capacity. Media operators also serve on a once a month rotation.
Lighting Operators: We are just in the process of bringing stage lighting into the sanctuary and will be looking for individuals interested in operating a lighting board and being part of the lighting crew. Christmas Eve and other special events hold additional opportunities for those who would like to serve as an lighting/production assistant.
Video Production/Operation: With the soon to be added addition of a flat screen TV in the foyer, we will be in need of camera operators to film the live feed during the Sunday Services. If you're interested in camera work, this is the place for you. As well, we are hoping to begin producing more "in house" videos, to go alongside message series and special events. If you are creative and passionate about visual media, we would love to have you join us at the ground floor of this ministry.
