The Presbyterian Church at Pluckemin - Newark, NJ

At Pluckemin we want worship to be the best hour of your week. That's why every service is carefully planned to help worshippers to come into God's presence in ways that inspire, inform, challenge, and heal. We proudly follow a traditional Presbyterian order of worship, but no one would accuse us of being stuck in the past.

The music program at Pluckemin Presbyterian Church has a rich tradition of performing the highest quality of music to the glory of God. The music offered is a blend of traditional, classical, and contemporary styles. The Sunday morning worship service consists of an organ or piano prelude and postlude, hymns, praise songs, choral anthems, and handbell offertories. At times, the worship service features special music with guest soloists and instrumentalists.

The program consists of two singing choirs and three handbell choirs, which rehearse on a weekly basis.

The musical instruments used for leading worship are an Allen Renaissance Model 350 three manual digital organ and a Yamaha baby grand piano. There is also a Yamaha upright console piano for the purpose of accompanying choir rehearsals. The church also owns a three and five octave set of Malmark handbells and a five-octave set of Malmark choir chimes.
