Hymn Choosing Team
Hymn Choosing Team Holy Trinity’s Hymn Choosing Team helps plan the music for worship. The Team meets before liturgical seasons to research readings and devise a meaningful path through the singing year. With the guidance and wisdom of the pastors and music director in attendance at each meeting, individuals present which hymns and special singing they find meaningful and appropriate to the team, resulting in the creation of a thematic and musical arc to each service and throughout the season.
