Worship

We use our musical and technical gifts to stoke genuine, passionate worship of Jesus

You're Invited to Join Christmas Choir!

YOU are invited to sing in our Rockin' Christmas Choir on December 15 for Creekside’s Christmas Celebration Services! The choir will fill the stage, leading in the Sunday services at 9:00am and 10:45am.

It's a ton of fun, you don't have to read music or know how to sing a choir part, and you'll help the congregation worship!  We’d love for you to join us!

Interested In Joining Our Team?

So glad you’re interested in getting involved in the Worship Arts ministry at Creekside! Doing music or tech helps people connect with God, builds your skills, and is a lot of fun too -  we are always looking to add Jesus-lovin’, servant-hearted people to our talented, encouraging, and fun community!

Step 1 - Tell Us You're Interested

You can do that by filling out the form below - click the button that says 'Sign Up' under the sections about music, tech, or camera. If you’ve already filled out the interest form, great - you’re on to step 2!

Step 2 - Meet With A Leader

You’ll meet briefly with one of our worship/tech leaders or pastors so we can learn a bit about your connection to our church, your faith journey and your skills & experience (not a bunch of experience is needed, especially if you’re interested in tech - we’ll teach you!). If we both recognize this as a fit, it's on to step 3.

Step 3 - Attend Tuesday Orientation

The next step is an orientation on a Tuesday evening. Tuesday evenings are our midweek team nights - we have dinner together and rehearsals across the campus (for multiple Sunday worship services). We’ll invite you to join us for the evening to get to know people and see how our musical/technical systems work.

Dinner is from 5:30PM to 6:30PM - it’s casual, with people arriving at different times. It’s a great opportunity for you to get to know others on the team! At 6:30PM we begin rehearsal so you’ll shadow the music or tech position you are interested in to see how things work behind the scenes. We want you to be comfortable with the various systems (like in-ear monitors if you’re a musician or the audio/lighting/video gear if you’re interested in tech).

Once you’ve completed those 3 steps, we’ll schedule you for a Sunday and then you’re on the team!  Team members typically serve about once a month, but it could be more or less depending on your schedule and availability.

Interested In Operating A Camera?

Join our live-stream camera team and help people connect with God through our worship services! If you have a desire to help people worship God and a willing heart to learn, join us!

The Opportunity...

  • Serve once a month (or more if you want!)
  • Tuesdays 6PM-8PM (Rehearsal), Sunday Services from 7:30AM to 10:30AM
  • No background needed - we'll train you!

Peter’s connection with Creekside goes back to 1999 when he met his wife through the church (at winter camp!) but he lived out of the area until 2016, when his family moved to Elk Grove, and became members at Creekside and joined staff in 2019. Peter had served in full time church ministry at other churches since 2003. He was only 4 years old when he accepted Christ which may seem young, but he remembers understanding the good news of Jesus clearly and was baptized later when he was 9. He married his wife Katie in 2007 and they have two young boys. Peter was born in Cameroon Africa to missionary parents and then moved to Germany where his father pastored until Peter was about 7 years old. Then they moved to southern CA where he grew up and lived until moving to Woodland CA in 2003 and now Elk Grove. Peter loves high altitude mountaineering and has climbed a number of peaks over 14,000 feet in elevation – Mt. Shasta, Mt. Rainer, Cotopaxi and Chimborazo (Ecuadorian Andes) as well as peaks in Alaska and Mexico. He also loves going to the movies! His favorite verse is: · Psalm 37:4 – Delight yourself in the LORD, and he will give you the desires of your heart.
