The worship ministries of Lufkin’s First Baptist Church continues to build upon a rich heritage of excellence. Music is a very important tool in our worship and we use a wide variety of worship and music resources for leading the people of God into His presence.
We are committed to grow and expand our worship ministry and we need others to join us. We consider it a joy to serve as part of a ministry team and we have many various opportunities for you to serve in our ministry as well. Whether you sing or play an instrument, enjoy acting, making costumes, running video cameras, or have music leadership experience, there is a place for you to serve. Simply come to one of our rehearsals or give our music office a call. We would love to visit with you!
