Worship Team
Those who are called to the worship ministry are first lovers of God’s presence when the lights and instruments are turned off. They have a deep hunger and drive to encounter God in the secret place and in the corporate setting. With this desire, they also use their instrument as a way to bring others into this realm of God’s presence. If this describes you, then Axess church will always have a place for you in our worship ministry.
Specific areas to consider:
Vocalists • Piano • Bass • Lead Guitar • Rhythm Guitar • Acoustic Guitar • Drums • Synth/Pads

Children's Ministry
Children’s ministry goes beyond entertaining kids until their parents can come and get them. As a leader in the children’s ministry, you recognize the unique position you have to pour into these kids lives with simple, timeless lessons about God and their role as a follower of Christ. These foundations that are laid at a young age will form them and their faith for years to follow.

Team Values
Celebrate Constantly
Celebration is the antidote to criticism and gossip. It softens our hearts towards each other and helps us to see others the way God sees them. Look for ways to celebrate and encourage one another each week.
Take Responsibility
The church is only as strong as its members. When you take responsibility to live out the mission, vision, and culture of the church, everyone wins. Don’t wait to be asked, be a self-starter. You are Axess Church.
Get Someone Involved
Don’t protect your spot, fill it with someone new. Actively look for people to teach and train. Pass your knowledge on.
Grow and Get Better
When you get better, the whole church gets better. How are you growing and perfecting your craft? Read, glean, experiment.
Get Excited for Change
Change is not something to be resisted, but welcomed. When we change, we grow, even if we fail. We cannot learn without experimenting, so let’s get excited when we try something new.
Stay in Control
We don’t blame others, we take responsibility for our actions, our moods, and our decisions. We create the atmosphere instead of waiting for someone else to do it.
