The Music Ministry of Second Presbyterian Church seeks to lift up God's word through Music by leading people in and preparing people for spirit-filled and truth-filled worship. Music inspires and calls God's people to a deeper level of worship and teaches adults and children alike that God is praised through singing and playing instruments.

The Music Ministry at Second Pres. seeks to give young and old a new song to sing all their life long.

Instrumental ensembles are formed for regular participation in the 9:00 am traditional worship service as well as occasional participation in special services throughout the year. If you're interested in playing an instrument in an ensemble contact Doris Hill ( ) at 828.6297 ext. 315.

The contemporary worship band leads worship at the 11:00 contemporary service. If you play an instrument, are a vocalist or would like to help lead contemporary worship, contact Anthony Atkinson ( ).
