Worship Team
The Psalmist wrote in Psalm 40:3, "He has put a new song in my heart." God has given every generation a voice and a song to declare His awesome love, mighty works, and His plan of salvation. The worship team of Calvary Chapel Fredericksburg exists to glorify God through song and praise and to use our God given talents to prepare the hearts of the congregation to receive His Word.

Worship Involves Adoration
The first element in worship is adoration. The Hebrews expressed this by their posture
and not alone my their word. For they prostrated themselves before God. O come, let
us worship and bow down: let us kneel before the Lord our Maker. They did not come
with an easy familiarity into the presence of God, but were aware of his greatness and
majesty, and came with a sense of privilege to His house."
H.H. Rowley "Worship in Ancient Israel"
Worship Involves Witness
If worship only had a vertical dimension and we only witnessed to God, then this pilgrimage we're on would end right here. But worship has a horizontal dimension: we witness to one another in the church and we witness to a lost world outside the church. It's not enough that I am transformed by worship; I must also help to transform others, and I should allow others to be used by God to transform me.
- Warren Wiersbe
