Do you hunger for gatherings that express the truths of the Word of God with passion, excellence and integrity? Do you long for the music in your church to live up to its promise of uniting the congregation, as one voice, in declaring the praises of God? Do you want to learn practical skills in music and song leading so that you can serve your local church effectively?
EMU Music has been delivering training and encouragement in music ministry for churches throughout Australia, Asia and the UK since 2003. We are excited to be coming to South Africa for the first time in February 2016 to conduct two ‘The Word in Song Together’ (TWIST) Music Conferences in Durban and Cape Town. We hope that you will join us for the finest in evangelical music ministry training and support.
TWIST Conferences are for all those involved in music ministry in the local church – from the part-time singer to the lead guitarist to those responsible for the coordination of music ministry. Each conference consists of a range of training workshops to assist you in your role as a church musician. There is also plenty of time allocated to singing together and to learning some great new songs.
The training workshops that will be presented at the conference suit all skill levels. While some are of a more general nature, others are specific to certain musicians or functions, such as song leading or guitar techniques. Where the content is more specific, you will be able to choose from a range of options that will be presented concurrently. Combined and optional workshops include:
Introduction to Biblical Music Ministry
Song Leading
The role of the Music Director
Guitar for church
Drums & Bass
Melody Instruments
Band Workshop
The first 150 to register and buy tickets for this event will receive a free MP3 Emu Music Sampler, along with a selection of other resources… so get in early! For further details and to book, head to www.emumusic.com/southafric
We would encourage you to consider this as the primary training opportunity for your church music teams in 2016! Why not make a day of it, by combining the great training of the TWIST conference during the day with the PASSION/ Chris Tomlin concert in the evening? We look forward to meeting you in Cape Town.
