Dare To Be Great

Who gets involved with the Journey Band?

The people who are involved with the Band attend The Journey on a regular basis. They feel gifted and want to use their talents to serve our church, and they have a servant's heart, ready and willing to serve where needed. Band members serve primarily at the weekend services, but also may perform at other special events.

Do I have to be a member of The Journey to join?

You do not have to be a member in order to join. However, by joining, it is our hope that you will decide to make the commitment to go through Membership Class, and officially join The Journey family.

Will I be asked to play every week?

No. We try to be very conscious of your schedule. We will create a schedule at the beginning of the season so that you are aware of your commitments right from the start. You are required to attend weekly rehearsals only if you are playing that Sunday. Likewise, you are expected to be a regular attender at the Sunday service even if you are not playing.

When are rehearsals and how long do they last?

Rehearsals are on Thursdays @ 7:30pm. Rehearsals last approximately 2 ½ hours depending on what needs to be accomplished. We usually put together 5 songs each week, so it takes some time to get everything just right. The final 30 minutes of the rehearsal will be a play through of all the songs with the vocal team. You should know the music completely when you arrive for rehearsal.

I am not a musician but I am an artist, can I get involved?

The Journey Worship Team is a collection of all types of creative artists! If you are an actor, a dancer, a fine artist, graphic artist or love working with technology there is a place for you on the team. Just contact John-Michael at johnmichael@journeysf.com to get information about how you can get involved.
