Passionate Worship Conference
Traditional, contemporary, blended, emerging, liturgical, and non-liturgical describe the diversities
of corporate worship in our congregations. We offer to lay leaders, pastors, musicians, music teams, choir members, worship planners, and key leaders & influencers a variety of resources to meet differing needs of worshipers. Sponsored by SWTC Board of Discipleship Worship & Music Team.
Contact a member of the Worship and Music Team if you are interested in serving on a future planning
team, if you’d like to suggest a workshop topic, or if you’d like to offer a workshop on a topic in which
you have proven expertise.
