Music Director
It is my desire to have a music ministry that honors and glorifies God, a ministry that calls people to worship and prepares the heart to receive God’s word. This we try to accomplish through heart felt congregational singing, choir, special vocal groups and an array of musical instruments.”

Media Director
God has blessed us with some state of the art equipment which has become valuable tools to help us accomplish our objectives. Although the media ministry is somewhat new, it is simply doing what the church has always done-using what is available at present to reach, teach and build up the body of believers.

Children's Ministry Director
We also understand the emphasis that needs to be placed on children. Besides Sunday school, we have both pre-school and Jr. Age children’s church. Our Jr. Church which we call Kidsville, is theme related. With AWANA clubs, camp, V.B.S., fun days and other activities, children find that they have a place at Corinth. After all, that’s part of our goal. We’re building lives.

Youth Director
The main purpose and goals of this youth ministry is to see souls saved and to assist the parents of our youth in training them to live a surrendered life for Jesus Christ. We allow our teens to accomplish these goals by giving them opportunities through visitation, inviting friends to services and evangelistic activities. One of the greatest tools we use to keep the teens on fire for God is the summer camp. The teens have a great time and always get a Spiritual uplift. Many decisions for Christ are made at camp. Last summer, Trevor Sancho Jr. was called to preach and we look forward to seeing how God uses his life.

The Corinth youth group is an exciting place to be and gives a teenager an atmosphere of positive peer pressure. The "teen years" can be some of the best years of a person’s life, but the opposite is also possible. Why pass the opportunity to have joy and happiness from living a victorious Christian life? We are here to help them understand the decisions they make now will affect them the rest of their life. The Lord has given me a great burden and vision to lead our youth group. Please pray for us as we strive to do the Lord’s will each and every day.
