Music
Music has always been an integral part of Methodist worship. Our services employ both traditional hymns and more contemporary music. Under the leadership of our Music Director, Danielle Wilson, the music ministry leads the songs in our services.
Everyone is encouraged to sing along with our music ministry during our Sunday services. All are welcome to consider joining the music ministry.
