The mission of the Director of Worship is to be the “producer” of worship services and special programs. Although the senior pastor is the “director” in terms of setting the theme and overall direction, the Director of Worship will oversee and coordinate all the details that a service encompasses. The director of worship must be a visionary who is creative in leading people into moments of worship and a lifestyle of worship. The director of worship is a leader who can create culture and communicate a direction in a way that inspires those around him/her to join in the pursuit of that vision. This position requires the individual to serve not solely as a musical or performing arts director but also as a spiritual leader in alignment with the mission, vision, core values, and core beliefs of St. Paul Baptist Church (SPBC).
