St. James Music Press Continues Music Ministry Renewal Grant
Grant opportunity for churches starting or revitalizing choir programs
Saginaw, MI - SJMP will award a grant to a church starting or revitalizing a choir program. The purpose of this grant is to support new music programs or established music ministries that are adding a new element by offering resources and professional support.
Elements awarded in the grant include -
- Complementary 1-Year Membership to St. James Music Press
- $1,000 - To support ministry needs
- Quarterly program consultations with SJMP colleagues to help recipients maximize their SJMP membership, discuss program challenges, and celebrate/build upon program successes.
Kevin Simons, owner and editor of SJMP says, "Serving small churches has always been part of the mission of St. James. But, post-paandemic, the need to reimagine, renew, and support church music is needed more than ever. We want to help some of these efforts get off the ground with resources and professional support so that clergy, staff, and volunteers can do what they do best - minister to their congregations through great music."
Funds are used at the discretion of the grant recipient and could include but are not limited to:
