MUSIC
A vital expression of our faith and community
Music at First Presbyterian Church is more than an accompaniment to worship—it’s a vital expression of our faith and community.
From contemporary songs that resonate with today’s voices to timeless choral pieces and the joyful tones of handbells, music here creates an atmosphere of reverence, reflection, and unity. It supports every dimension of church life, enhancing our Sunday services, enriching fellowship, and extending our message of hope and compassion to the wider community. Through music, we celebrate, reflect, and draw closer to God and one another.
CONTEMPORARY MUSIC TEAM
Music at our 9:00 am service is led by our contemporary music team. The ensemble includes vocalists, guitars, bass, drums, and keyboard. Music style is eclectic, though generally modern. Rehearsals are held before worship.
CHANCEL CHOIR
Music at our 11:00 am service is led by the Chancel Choir, a four-part ensemble singing music from across the historical spectrum, from Renaissance to Gospel and Contemporary. The choir sings through nine months of the year, and takes a break during the summer. Rehearsals are Wednesday evenings at 6:45 p.m.
HANDBELLS
There are handbell ensembles for children and adults. Handbells present music at the 11:00 am worship service throughout the year. Handbells rehearse during the school year on Wednesday evenings from 5:30 - 6:30 p.m.
