Music News | Events
Music is an essential part of our worship, our fellowship, and even discipleship. Our music staff looks forward to making music with you.
Congregational Singing
Congregational singing is the most important element of our music ministry at Morningside. Our songs are intentionally chosen to glorify God and build up other believers (Eph. 5:19). Every service includes the opportunity to sing songs from multiple eras of church history, including our own.
Choir
Our choir presents music during our Sunday morning service and assists in congregational singing whenever possible. We meet at 9 AM to rehearse each Sunday in the Larry Carrier Music Hall. If you are a member of Morningside, actively pursuing membership, or a temporary Greenville resident with membership elsewhere, we would love to have you join us. Child care and transportation assistance are available. For more information or to get involved, please begin the process now or contact our associate pastor Jeriel Ontoy.
ORCHESTRA
To complement our choir the Lord has given to Morningside gifted musicians who have a desire to honor Him and edify His people by exercising their talents in music. Our orchestra consists of strings, woodwinds, brass, and percussion instruments. For more information or to get involved, please contact our orchestra director Karis Morgan.
sACRED rECITALS
We schedule sacred recitals every few months from our church family. All ages and skill levels are invited to participate. For information about singing or playing in the next recital, please contact the church office or Pastor Ontoy with any questions!
CHILDREN
Children have a special place in God’s heart like no other. When they lift their voices in singing to the Lord, it definitely adds to our worship service!
Our children’s choir exists to help develop our children’s talents and passion for local church ministry. Children’s choir is open to children in Grades 1–5, and they practice most Sundays in the Kids Wing during the 9:00 hour September-April. For more information or to get involved, please contact Pastor Jeriel Ontoy.
CHRISTMAS PROGRAMS
Christmas is a great time of year to celebrate the birth of our Savior, Jesus Christ. We take several opportunities during the month of December to reflect on the true meaning of Christmas through the means of music and/or drama. The choir and orchestra presents a program each December, followed by a program from our children. During the Sunday School hour on the last Sunday before Christmas, we hear special music presented by our children and teens.
