Booking Information

Many churches who invite the Trumpet of the Lord to minister want to know how much will it cost?

The Trumpet of the Lord is a great ministry because it focuses upon what it does well.

What the Trumpet of the Lord does well is focus upon ministering to churches in the eastern United States with powerful soul stirring life changing sermons that contain a clear gospel message, and first class professional musical concerts at a fraction of the cost of what most professional music ministries charge.

The Trumpet of the Lord will come and minister with a concert and a dynamic biblically based message for your church for a love offering plus basic travel expenses (please contact us for details).  All of the members of the Trumpet of the Lord serve as volunteers, and everyone at the Trumpet of the Lord including Michael and Patricia Schmidt serve without taking a salary.

The Trumpet of the Lord is a professional world class music ministry that your church or event can afford.

We try to be fair, firm and consistent in the price that we charge. We charge a very low fee so that all churches can afford to book us. We believe that there are no little places and we will work with you to offer first class professional music and evangelistic meetings at a fraction of the cost of other professional artists and speakers.

While some Christian music ministries charge up to ten thousand dollars a concert along with a long list of "tech rider" requirements, the Trumpet of the Lord will work for you with whatever set of circumstances you have in order to better serve both you and the Lord.

You might be wondering how can the Trumpet of the Lord afford to charge so much less than other artists. One of the reasons that the Trumpet of the Lord charges less is that ALL of the members of the Trumpet of the Lord see this as a ministry. Even still the Trumpet of the Lord can not afford to travel and perform/minister at its current level of professionalism for free.

The Trumpet of the Lord is a ministry that has ministered to churches in over forty states for over twenty five years. Dr. Michael E. Schmidt has ministered to some of the largest churches in the country such as the First Baptist Church of Snellville, GA, Thomas Road Baptist Church in Lynchburg, VA. and First Redeemer in downtown Atlanta, GA.

Michael has played back up trumpet for many well known artists such as Michael Tate (DC TALK), Linda Randle Tate (Bill Gaither Homecomings), and Squire Parsons. Michael has also played for many well known sports teams such as the Atlanta Falcons and the Atlanta Hawks.

Michael has also opened for the Speer Family and Dr. Jerry Falwell.
