First Christian Church has a strong commitment to music


The church enjoys and supports music in a variety of fashions.
 
The church has a strong choir, a handbell choir, an excellent organ and great church musicians.

Chancel Choir
 
The Chancel Choir represents one part of a vibrant music ministry at First Christian Church. Presenting music representative of many musical periods and styles, the choir strives, above all, to let the meaning of the music shine through.
 
Open to all who wish to sing, rehearsals are Wednesday evenings at 7 p.m, and are filled with music-making and fellowship.
 
Mike Beckner is the director and Dale Rider is the organist
 
 
Church organ
 
The church has an excellent organ and has had, over the years, many of the area's finest organists on staff.
 
Watch and listen to former church organist Thom Greathouse play "For All the Saints" on the church organ.
