Whether you are guiding five cherubs with a guitar or 100 singers with 200 ranks of organ pipes, you are welcome to join us and become a part of the vast reservoir of resources and knowledge that we collectively offer to each other.

A complete guide to hiring a musician is available by clicking here. It includes practical information and worksheets in a format that can be filled out on a computer.

From Our President

The United Church of Christ Musicians Association is a vibrant national grassroots organization of musicians and pastors (of any denomination) who are continually seeking new ways to worship, connect and uplift people through music and the arts. Every two years, we host a three-day national conference in the summer, each time in a different area of the U.S. It is filled to the brim with outstanding directors, clinicians, performers and worship experiences. It is a time for church musicians and pastors to learn, experiment, connect and grow. Our next conference will be held in Glastonbury, CT, July 8-11, 2021.

We offer to our members:

Three professional journals per year
Six digital newsletters per year
Access to membership directory and job listings
Regional workshops
Discount on national conferences
Support from the Board of Directors
