Serving Opportunities

You may complete your online application here. Once your application is complete you'll receive an email from us inviting you to do a video or in-person audition.

You need to select one of the following three songs to perform instrumentally and/or vocally. Feel free to transpose to a different key as needed.

• “Great Things” by Phil Wickham (download chord chart in B, D, G)
• “Here I Bow” by Bethel Music (download chord chart in A, D, G)
• “Yet Not I But Through Christ in Me” by City Alight (download chord chart in keys C, D or G)
   

You'll also be asked to walk a small worship team through one additional worship song of your choosing. To do this:

• Select and rehearse one of your favourite worship songs.
• Print four chord charts of the song and bring them to your audition.
• We will provide a small ensemble to accompany you through the song you've chosen.

• Your instrument (a keyboard, bass amp, Helix electric guitar pedal, and drum kit will be available in the practice space).
• You will also need to bring a chord chart (4 copies) for a worship song of your choosing.
• Any questions you have for us.

You'll be sent an email regarding the final status of your application/audition at the end of March/early April.

The time commitment varies from week to week (i.e. it's distributed differently) depending on whether you're on a Chapel or Sunday Night Alive team, but students should expect to invest 8 hours/week on average to participate on any TWU worship team. Just remember three, two, one!

• Three hours of personal practice per week: scheduled by you on your own time for the purpose of honing your craft, practicing your parts, and learning new repertoire.
• Two hours of team rehearsal per week: scheduled around team members’ schedules for the purpose of creating compelling arrangements and strengthening musical cohesiveness.
• One hour of team time per week: scheduled around team members’ schedules and designed to help your team grow together.
• For SNA specifically: SNA takes place six times per semester (approx. bi-weekly) from 7-8 PM. There is one SNA worship team. So, in addition to the above weekly commitments, each SNA event represents a 5-hour commitment (from approx. 4-9 PM).
• For Chapel specifically: Chapel teams will lead on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays during the school year from 11-11:30 AM. There are three Chapel worship teams that operate on a one on, two off rotation. So, in addition to the above weekly commitments, each team's chapel week represents an additional 5-8 hour commitment (from 10:30-11:45 AM Monday to Friday on the weeks your team is leading worship in song).
• For Breathe Chapel specifically: Breathe Chapel takes place 2-4x per month, usually during Devotion Chapels on Tuesdays or Thursdays from 11-11:30 AM. There is one Breathe team. So, in addition to the above weekly commitments, each Breathe event involves a commitment from 10:30-11:45 AM, 2-4x each month.
