Giving

This is not a time of pressured involvement rather a cheerful celebration of HIS goodness to us. All offerings are a matter of free-will giving by the members and our guests need not feel obligated to give.

What is the music like?

Feel free to join in song or dance. Freedom to praise and focus on God is the order of the day.

If you believe God has called you to serve and praise through song, consider one of Galilee's choirs. Accompanied by a variety of skilled musicians, Galilee M. B. Church's worshippers are ministered to by the inspired voices of The Mass Choir (1st Sunday), Ministry With Purpose (MWP - 3rd & 4th Sundays), The Youth Choir (2nd Sunday) and the Male Chorus (5th Sunday). On special occasions the choirs combine forming a beautiful mass choir.
