Make Music Unto the Lord
First Church has an active music program. There are children, youth, and adult choirs, bell ringing, choir festivals, and musicals. Plan now to join the sound of music here in our church. There is a place for you and your family in our music programs. Contact our Minister of Music, Loryne Koebele.

Allyson Printz, Katie Gerrish and Jennifer Dalrymple had the wonderful experience of attending the Bell Conference of The American Guild of English Handbell Ringers (AGEHR) held at U Maine, Orono the last weekend of June. Starting Thursday afternoon, culminating with a concert on Sunday afternoon, the long weekend is a highlight in a bellringers' career. The biennial conference included classes, many "mini concerts" and three rehearsals each day to get ready for the Sunday afternoon concert of 800 ringers. The mini concerts featured individuals and choirs who prepared a special piece of music. We also took the opportunity to listen to the rehearsals of the "Bronze" bell choirs (advanced level) to hear some inspiring ringing. The event was an opportunity for the bell ringing community to come together, share and learn about "cutting edge" news in the bell ringing world. The ringers all came away refreshed and re-enthused about the art of bell ringing.
