Living into God's Kin-dom
Biblical traditions remind us that our faith is lived out in community, shaped by the people of our time and history. In following these traditions, Creator Church recognizes that our calling extends beyond our congregation. We partner not only with our church members but also with other communities and organizations to serve our neighbors and nurture God's good creation.

MUSIC MINISTRY
At Creator, we celebrate the diversity of global music and actively seek to incorporate multicultural musical expressions into our worship. This reflects our hope to create more opportunities for a richly multicultural worship experience, embracing music from around the world.
In addition, Creator's Music Directors, past and present, have composed original liturgical music uniquely tailored for our congregation. These compositions have become cherished parts of our worship and are sung regularly. We also encourage members of the congregation with musical gifts to contribute to Sunday services, fostering a shared sense of creativity and participation in our worship life.
