HS RETREAT WORSHIP LEADERS
Seven Rivers Worship aims to combine timeless truths through liturgy, lyrics, creeds, and confessions with the beauty of God's creativity and character through music and art that is relatable today. We believe the foundations of worship should consist of Spirit and Truth, and, in response, it should engage both the affections of our hearts and the attention of our minds as we seek to glorify our creator and make his name known to our community. Our hope is that anything we offer would aid in bringing the healing love of Jesus to broken people and broken places.
