The SFBC FAA seeks to use musical instruments as a means to promote the arts and artistic expression, creating better musicians in students while also evangelizing and discipling people for Jesus Christ. Our end goal is for the skill and talent gained to be used in authentic worship of God and to bring glory to Him through the art of music.
