Serving in the House

At the Cathedral of Praise we love to serve! God designed us not just to take from life but to add to it. Therefore, along with all our vibrant departments, there are many opportunities to make a difference. We have talented and creative Worship, production and media teams. Our Sunday services are full of opportunities to be involved, from making sure communion is ready for the morning service to being a barista at the Café. We also love to bless others on a practical level, whether it be vacuuming the auditorium or cooking a meal. Then there is always the opportunity to be part of our annual Christmas Musical, which is a highlight of every year. If you are interested in getting involved in church life contact us.
