“A glorious throne, exalted from the beginning, is the place of our sanctuary”

(Jeremiah 17:12)

Here at State College Alliance, we embrace the vision of a perfect, glorious, all-sustaining creator God. This is why we worship. God is worthy and beautiful and we long to magnify Him with all our hearts. Please feel free to get to know our ministry better by checking out this page.

Read about our Vision of Worship here.

There are all sorts of ways in which we express passionate worship to God:

Choir

A group of dedicated men and women who love to sing, worship and lead others to do the same. The choir serves as a regular part of the 9.00am Classic service both as Worship Leaders and with Choir anthems. We currently meet for rehearsal on Thursday nights from 6-7:15pm and Sunday morning @ 8am in the Sanctuary. The Choir Season runs from September to May.  For an application, please click here.

Orchestra

Consisting of a variety of keyboards (Organ, Synth, Piano), wind and brass instruments, our orchestra accompanies and facilitates worship during the 9:00 am Classic Service. We emphasize personal preparation in advance of a rehearsal on Sunday morning @ 8am in the Sanctuary. Participation is by application and audition.

Vocal Team

Our vocal teams are made up of 2-4 singers and serve both Sunday morning services on a rotational basis, ie. the same team serves both services on any given Sunday. We count on VT members to have a presence and freedom in worship, strong voices, the ability to hear harmony (a plus if you have a Soprano or Baritone voice, a necessity if you have an Alto or Tenor voice) and in general take a significant role in leading our congregation in worship. We rehearse on Thursdays 5:15-6:00.Some of our VT members also serve in the evening, Healing and Anointing service. Participation is by application and audition.

Band

Imagine a group of people who love to play music: Guitars (bass, electric, acoustic), drums, hand percussion and Keys. We are inspired and have been shaped by the sounds of groups like Hillsong United and the Desperation Band, Worship Leaders like Matt Redman, Chris Tomlin and Kari Jobe. Above all though, we love Jesus and want to express “all out” worship to Him. The Band serves our 11.10 am and 6pm services and rehearses on Thursday afternoon 4:30-6:00. Participation is by application and audition.

Media Team

These men and women are the backbone of weekend worship services, helping to manage our lighting, sound and visual media. As a team we are committed to facilitating seamless, excellent and God-saturated ministry. Don’t be intimidated though, we have regular training opportunities and most of the things that we do are at a very user-friendly level.  Find an application here.
