The Alleluia Conference is a meaningful space for ministry leaders to join together in conversation and training, allowing for important dialogue surrounding the joys and challenges of daily service to the local church. In July, some 173 churches were represented at the Alleluia, bringing together more than 300 church musicians for the event.

For the second year, we invite you to unleash the full potential of your worship services with a comprehensive two-day class on live sound for worship, presented by Sweetwater. Led by renowned worship sound experts Jeff Barnett and Kent Morris, this intensive class will equip your team with practical and valuable technical knowledge for creating exceptional worship experiences. 

When we talk about music ministry, of course we're talking about the music we sing and play, but that's not all! At Alleluia, we not only seek to equip church musicians with music resources and technical skills, but our clinicians also share valuable perspectives that can be applied to any music ministry context. We are looking forward to having these worship clinicians and panelists on the Alleluia schedule.

This summer at Alleluia you will find a number of nationally recognized composers and songwriters. This collection of musical all-stars bring their music, insights, expertise, and experience to share with all of the attendees at the conference.

Ministry is a gift and truly something beautiful, but we also know that it can be tasking. That's why we want to create a retreat for worship leaders, not only to dialogue and learn about worship leadership, but also to participate in worship gatherings without the pressure of having to plan, lead, conduct, play, or preach.

Wherever your church might be, we have prepared something for you and your ministry! Composers have come with their music tailored for church worship. Pianists are ready to share their talents to fine-tune new skills. Organ sessions bring new insight on how to use your church’s largest instrument. Handbell experts are ready to encourage you to ring in the new song. Children’s ministers are eager to encourage holistic and intergenerational worship.

As we look ahead with expectation on how this year will unfold, we hope that Alleluia will be one of the events that blesses, encourages, and inspires you and your ministry.
