Music

The focus of our Music Ministries at First Presbyterian Church is to offer the best worship experience possible. We help those who have musical gifts to share their talents with the congregation in all three of our worship services. Using diverse musical styles with both voices and instruments, we seek to praise God “from whom all blessings flow.”

If you feel a desire to express your faith through music, we invite you to join us at whatever level of commitment you are prepared to make. Please contact David Fandrich, Director of Music, with any questions about the Music Ministries here at First Presbyterian. (293-6311 ext 15)
