Worship is rooted in Scripture and in our United Methodist heritage and experience. Our worship in both its diversity and its unity is an encounter with the living God through the risen Christ in the power of the Holy Spirit.

Here at Mt. Pisgah Trinity Church, the Worship Team is responsible for the services of worship and the many arms of worship as described below. The team works together to make the worship experience meaningful and inspirational. The Worship Team meets 4 times a year and is always looking for persons who enjoy worship and can help to enhance the worship experience. The team works together to decorate for the Advent and Christmas season and the Lent and Easter season.

The worship team is responsible for Ushers, Greeters, Lay Readers, Acolytes, Choirs, Communion and Paramounts, Flowers and Children's Activity Bags.

Ushers:  They welcome persons to the worship center and gives out the worship folder, help persons to find a seat , are available if someone needs assistance, takes the offering and helps with communion.
