Music
The music ministry of First Presbyterian Church encompasses choirs for all ages, handbells, a contemporary band, and a bluegrass band. It also offers the Sanctuary Concert Series, which features several musicians and ensembles throughout the year. Whether you're a musician yourself, a music connoisseur, or a casual listener, there's something for everyone!
If you have any questions about our music ministry, please contact Daniel Hamilton, Director of Music.
