WCHS Worship Band

This is the story documented by an iJournalism student of the WCHS worship band.
The worship team gets up bright and early every Wednesday to come and lead worship. They set up microphones, music stands, etc. and make sure everything is ready to go and running smoothly for that day's chapel. They prepare songs and practice their instruments for hours to perfect them. Most importantly, the worship team prepares the hearts and minds of the student body for the chapel message.
WCHS former worship band leader, Jack Peterman, said, "Yeah sure, its nerve wracking the first time you do it because anything in front of the entire student body is, but once you get used to it and realize you're not doing it for their entertainment, then all that goes away and it makes it twenty times better". However, through their struggles of waking up early and dealing with stage freight, the worship team perseveres so that they can worship God and grow closer to him.
