Summer brings a welcomed slowdown for many worship ministries. Use this less hectic season to refresh and strengthen your team. First, lighten the workload by taking more time off, scaling back the band, and cutting a song from each setlist. Next, pause adding new songs and visit a slightly larger church to gain perspective. Then utilize the lull to complete important ministry projects. Finally, invest in deeper relationships with backyard gatherings.
Read on to discover specific ideas that will help you make the most of summer in your worship ministry, such as:
- Take more time off and give your team a break too
- Do 3-4 piece bands and use pads/tracks to fill gaps
- Cut one song from each Sunday setlist this summer
- Don’t introduce new songs; give the congregation time to learn current ones
- Visit a slightly larger church to gain perspective and ideas
- Use the lull to complete important but non-urgent ministry projects
- Have backyard gatherings to build relationships with your team
