Ministry, Liturgy & Education

We insist on being a ministry team and not just a band. It confuses people - they don't know which box to put us in or what to call us - but we've learned to live with that.

We believe in collaborative ministry, a sharing of skills and working across disciplines. We are a ministry rather than a band because bands are about performing music for audiences, minstry is about serving the church at prayer.

We believe that Catechesis, Evangelisation, and Liturgy are inseparable strands of the life of the Church; each informing and giving resonance to the other in turn. cjm|music seeks to bring these strands together in ways that are creative and accessible for people of all ages, all walks of life and in all cross-sections of the church.

Our areas of work include:

INSET Courses

INSET
In Service Training days are becoming an increasingly significant aspect of the work of cjm|music. The courses try to deliver new music, Church teaching and practical ideas that will help teachers, pastoral musicians and others to nurture and enrich the liturgical experience of their own worshipping communities

You can book our team to deliver INSET in-house at your own school or venue of your choice, or you can attend as a delegate on one of our many open courses held at locations around the country. [more...]



working with schools

WORKING WITH SCHOOLS
For many young people, their only regular experience of church is collective worship at school. Members of the cjm|music team have designed the "Big Sing Liturgy Thing" as a feast of music, song, prayer, dance & liturgy.

The format is borne out of more than 10 years' experience working with young people in schools and leading music & liturgy in a variety of settings,
with people of all ages. [more...]


Boyce & Stanley in concert

CONCERTS & PERFORMANCES
Whether performing as a duo, or with their full band and Celebrate Chorus, Boyce & Stanley are "consummate performers and bring an enthusiasm which can excite and inspire their audience".

From parish hall, to civic hall, their concerts are prayerful, uplifting and fun all at the same and suitable for all ages. Just what the church needs in this age of evangelisation. [more...]

 

leading worship & animating liturgies

LEADING WORSHIP & ANIMATING LITURGIES
Increasingly, cjm|music are invited to plan and animate the liturgies for large gatherings, conferences and residential events.

Our team of musicians, singers, dancers and liturgists, offers a complete and holistic approach to the planning animation of any celebration in any setting, be it a 10,000-seat arena, a marquee in a field or an average, traditional parish church. [more...]


music & liturgy workshops

WORKSHOPS & TRAINING DAYS
These types of sessions are less formal than our more structured INSET course, and are generally parish-based or residential.

They are aimed at musicians, singers and other ministers of the liturgy and are an opportunity to learn new music (perhaps in preparation for a coming liturgical season) and deepen understanding of the liturgy, culmintating in a Celebration of the Eucharist in the host parish.
