Prior to the forthcoming Music Ministers' Conference organised by the Music Department of CAC Worldwide, the Music Director of the mission, Pastor Tope Dada has stated that part of what they want Choristers to know at the conference is that they are Ministers, not entertainers.
Pastor Tope Dada noted this recently in an interview with CAC NEWS.
The Music Director explained that "We are planning to hold Music Ministers’ Conference which will hold from 10th to 15th of September this year. We want our singers, choristers and instrumentalists to know that they are ministers, not entertainers. They are not entertaining the congregation, but rather ministering to them."
"There will be series of workshops, teachings and symposia among others at the conference. We have a lot of technical sessions that will be in three categories which are the elementary level, intermediate and advance. We are going to dedicate 40 hours to practical training. Whether you want to do voice training or you want to learn to play a musical instrument, we have experts that will take you through. It is going to be 40 hours of intensive training. We are also going to have a mega concert during the conference."
He stated that they want to ensure that every chorister in CAC irrespective of the assembly must know God and be born again.
He added that "all choristers in CAC Worldwide must understand their responsibilities as ministers in the church. The vision of the Music Department is to develop every member of the choir to an international standard and keep developing them."
Watch out for the full interview tomorrow.
