Music Ministries
The Chancel Choir is composed of 20-30 adult volunteers, rehearsing two hours each week. The choir sings at Sunday worship services each week, special services, and occasionally funerals and weddings.
The Handbell Choir is a group of 12 adults who enjoy the challenge and peculiarities of handbell ringing. The Choir rings the Sunday service prelude on occasion, in addition to accompanying the choirs or the congregation. The group rehearses on a weekly basis.
Music programs for youth are incorporated into the Youth Fellowship program and the Sunday morning Children's Christian Education program.
First Church's pipe organ was completely rebuilt in 1994 by Dobson Pipe Organ Builders. Several sets of original pipes were repaired and new pipes were designed to blend with the existing pipework and to expand the tonal resources available. All pipes were revoiced and regulated to speak on new windchests. The console is new. There are three manuals and pedal, fifty-five stops and sixty ranks.
The Handbell Choir presents its worship in music with Malmark Handbells (five octaves).
The piano in the sanctuary is a Mason & Hamlin 7 foot grand piano.
