Chapel Bands have been a great way to serve Cedarville, make friends with band members, and grow as a Christ follower. It's just another great way to be a part of the Cedarville family." —Jesse Sincock Junior ChapelBand Leader CHAPEL BANDS Chapel is one of the most unique features of Cedarville University. At the beginning of a typical chapel ser- vice, students participate in corporate praise and wor- ship before a speaker shares from God's word. Along with various guest bands and musical groups, there are seven student-led bands that lead worship during the course of the school year. The student-led bands rotate and lead worship around once or twice a month. In order to play in a chapel band, students audition for a chance to be part of a band at the beginning of fall semester.Student worship leaders and band members don't necessarily have to be worship majors. They are just expected to be able to commit for a whole year. Each band practices several times a month, select- ing songs that will both encourage and challenge stu- dents to become more Christ-like. Sometimes speakers request a specific song to be played that will coincide with the message. Members of the chapel bands con- sider it a great honor to be able to lead over 3,000 people in worship to God.
