Worship & Music
Experience God Through Music
Music plays a vital role at WABC. The WABC Music & Worship Ministry exists to lead our congregation in glorifying and praising God. West Asheville’s Music Ministry offers something for everyone in your family. From singing and playing instruments to special productions, you can find a place to use your talents to serve the Lord.
