Greetings.

I am trying to find an accurate translation of: "In service, art" or "Through art, service" into Medieval Latin - preferably Medieval Ecclesiastical Latin.

I'm not sure I get the meaning of "In service, art."

"Through art, service" would be "per artem ministerium."

"in service, art" would mean that in service there is art. IOW, performing a service can *be* an art. "Through sevice, art" might be an easier English phrase with which to work.
