Organist

“So many of the hymns and songs of the church are confessions of our hope; scriptures retold in poetic form and set to music, solidifying our faith and helping us focus on our relationship with a trustworthy God. As organist, I try to help create an atmosphere for worship by playing the familiar hymns and songs of the church which lift and inspire us. We may not remember all of the words, but even a phrase from a song can help us open our hearts and minds to the hope we need.
