National Religious Music Week: Our Mission

National Religious Music Week exists in order to encourage all places of worship to celebrate and honor the ministry of music, and to showcase their musical talents and traditions before the community at large. Through all of our efforts, we desire to bring glory to the Lord, our God.
Trustees Rabbi Bruce Adler and Katherine Rumph-Butler review some of the city, county and state proclamations and resolutions saluting National Religious Music Week	Our immediate objectives are: 1. To recognize the last full week of September each year as Religious Music Week, and during that week to celebrate and honor the ministry of music in all our places of worship, renewing our faith through song. 2. To encourage all congregations to extend thanks and recognition to the musicians who provide the music for worship services throughout the year; and in so doing, to give these musicians support and encouragement for the enhancement of the religious music program.
Congratulatory letters from U.S. Congressman John Boehner and U.S. Senator George Voinovich salute Religious Music Week.	3. To so energize the musicians in our churches, temples and synagogues as to motivate them to reach out into the community, drawing ever more people to the worship of the Lord, our God.
