Sunday Song Leader, Gig (Paid Per Appearance), UCC: Brighton, MA
Brighton Allston Congregational Church is seeking a Sunday Song Leader for 2 or 3 Sundays per month. We offer $90 per Sunday.
Our church actively welcomes LGBTQ+ members and we have a strong commitment to racial and environmental justice. Through our ministries, we provide food relief to thousands in Allston-Brighton. All of our staff and guests are required to wear masks on the property and follow other COVID safety protocols set by the church.
We seek a Sunday morning Song Leader to:
Lead the congregation in singing hymns by singing the melody clearly from the microphone at the front of the church
Sing one solo accompanied by our pianist
The person in this position will be able to read music well enough to sing any hymn from our hymnal when accompanied by piano. Our Sunday Song Leader will also be able to differentiate between leading the congregational singing and performing a solo.
Sunday Schedule:
10:15-10:25 warm up
10:25-10:30 piano prelude
10:30-approximately 11:30 worship service
Beyond these basic requirements, we are looking for a team player with good communication skills, who can get behind our mission of serving all members of our community equitably. All of our staff are expected to greet our guests with warmth and compassion.
Our church, and by extension our food ministry, is committed to the work of justice, equity, and inclusion. We recognize that systemic injustice often plays out in employment practices. We particularly encourage those whose identities have been historically marginalized (Black, Indigenous, POC, woman, queer, trans, disabled, unhoused, etc.) to apply.
To apply for an audition, please send a one-page cover letter, resume, and two references to pastor@brightonallstonucc.org and nmichelin@berklee.edu.
