The use and acceptability of applause is left to the discretion of the individual congregation and its Session and/or Worship Committee. Traditionally, applause has been considered inappropriate in worship services, because the purpose of worship is not entertainment of the congregation. Musicians, soloists and other artists offer their skills as "worship leaders," encouraging and inspiring the congregation to worship God. Applause tends to direct attention and praise toward the performers instead of directing that focus toward God whom Presbyterians honor as the Source of all such gifts.
