Music MINISTRY
Music Ministry
We invite you to participate in Fairlington's Music Ministry. There are many opportunities to serve through joining a choir and leading worship through song, instrumental pieces, handbell choir, and special music opportunities.
Make a joyful noise unto the Lord, all the earth: make a loud noise, and rejoice, sing praise. Sing unto the Lord with the harp, and the voice of a psalm. With trumpets and sound of cornet make a joyful noise before the Lord!
Psalm 98: 4-6
