The Worship Lab
June 28 - July 3
Get ready to join us for The Worship LAB!
Ever watched your Sunday worship team and thought, I want to do that?
Whether you’re dreaming of joining your youth group’s band or you’re already playing and want to take your skills to the next level, E-Free’s Worship LAB is for you. Join like-minded youth to make music, master popular worship songs, learn the dynamics of playing in a band, and discover the true heart behind why we praise God through music.
Sign up for one of two worship bands based on age to dive deep into the dynamics of playing together as a tight ensemble.* Led by Worship Arts Pastor Ken Dosso and Worship Arts Intern Samuel Kliever, this camp is all about building up the next generation of worship leaders. Plus, you’ll get the unique opportunity to hang out with members of E-Free’s own Sunday worship team, work together during a rehearsal, and get personalized tips and feedback from the musicians themselves.
On Friday evening, students will present the culmination of their work from the week by leading a worship set similar to E-Free’s Sunday morning worship. Family, friends, peers, and church members are invited to attend the Community Worship Night, where students will put what they have learned into practice and lead the group in song and worship.

Meet Sam Kliever!
Stepping in as our Summer Worship Arts Intern, Samuel is studying digital audio at the University of Lethbridge and is a multi-talented musician on vocals, piano, drums, and guitar. He has a massive passion for musical theatre and recently brought his acting, dancing, and singing skills to the stage in Little Women, Newsies, and Footloose and Rent the Musical coming up this fall! When he’s not making music, Samuel loves lifting weights and swimming. He is so pumped to create and jam with everyone this summer at The Worship Lab!
Meet Ken Dosso!
Ken has been the Worship Pastor at E-Free since 2007 and always strives to lift up the people around him with the music he makes. He holds three degrees in music and theology spanning across the University of Victoria and the University of Western Washington as well as Briercrest College, is a published composer, and plays guitar, bass, hand percussion, and piano (which he’s been playing since he was just seven!). When he’s not making music, Ken loves soaking up the summer sun, hiking in the mountains, and hunting down the best ice cream flavours. He is pumped to share, teach, and jam with you all at The Worship LAB!
