• Communicate consistently and promptly with musicians, worship leaders, MWA Leadership, and Production regarding weekly service needs, changes, expectations, preparation timelines, and concerns.

Primary Goals:

• Enhance the weekly worship experience through strong, anointed, prepared, organized, and excellent musical leadership.

• Support the overall musical needs of Mount Zion Baptist Church across all campuses, not only one assigned campus.

• Help musicians feel prepared, supported, clear on expectations, accountable, and connected to the broader ministry culture.

• Strengthen consistency in music preparation, arrangements, playback, tracks, rehearsals, recordings, communication, and special events.

• Build a healthy band culture marked by honor, unity, preparation, leadership maturity, spiritual sensitivity, and excellence.
