Music & Arts

First Presbyterian believes whole-heartedly that music and art is an offering to God and is committed to sharing a diverse range of musical and artistic offerings in our worship and life together. There are many opportunities within the music and arts ministry for all to be involved.

Contact Director of Music and Liturgical Arts Jody Branson with questions about our music and arts ministries or if you’d like to get involved!
