Music & Worship

The Music and Worship Ministries of Bethel Baptist Church exist to glorify and exalt the name of Jesus Christ through the medium of music and the arts.  In Colossians 3:16, the Apostle Paul writes, “Let the word of Christ richly dwell within you, with all wisdom teaching and admonishing one another with psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with thankfulness in your hearts to God.”  There are several ways members are able to connect and participate through the Music and Worship Ministry.  

The Praise Choir and Orchestra is a dedicated group that serves by using their talents, gifts, and time in the music ministry.  The Adult Choir meets every Wednesday at 7:00 p.m. in the Choir Room.  The Praise Choir is open to anyone who has a desire and a talent to sing.  This group of committed members lead weekly in our worship services and also participates in special presentations annually.  Our Praise Orchestra rehearses every Sunday at 4:00 p.m. with the Praise Team.  If interested in serving in the Praise Choir or Praise Orchestra, contact the Music Ministry Assistant, Mary Lawrence, at 575-437-7311 to schedule an appointment with our Worship Pastor.


At Bethel Baptist Church, children begin learning about worship and participating in worship through Children’s Choirs.  The Children’s Choirs are for PreK - Kinder and 1st – 6th Grades.  Our children learn to worship through music, drama, and leading in worship services.  We want to instill a love for Jesus and worship through the ministry of our choirs.  Our Children’s Choirs meet on Wednesday at 6:00 p.m. in the Davis Building.

Audio/Visual Team

In addition, there are several other opportunities to serve through the audio-visual ministry.  For those interested, training is available to join the team.  Contact our Music Ministry Assistant, Mary Lawrence, at 575-437-7311 to set up an interview.
