UCC Musicians Association Guidelines for the Ministry of Music

 

These Guidelines have been prepared to guide both musicians and churches in developing a more effective working relationship with the goal of strengthening the ministry of music. While most of this document is directed toward the process of hiring a new musician, it can also be used effectively to review present programs and personnel.
