Today at Canyon Creek we follow the significant role music has played in the Old and New Testament. The Music Ministry offers a chance for you to let music be a part of your gift to God. Whether young or old, there is a place for you. We invite you to take advantage of a dynamic, fully-graded music program that offers opportunities for spiritual, personal, and musical growth. Join any of these choirs and be a part of the CCPC Music Ministry, as we seek to be instruments of God’s Word. David W. Hays Director of Music Ministries
