Music and singing are central to the life of our church at Mt. Airy Presbyterian Church. Why? We are a congregation that loves to praise God! In addition to singing a rich selection of hymns and praise songs during our Sunday services, we enjoy special music in the form of instrumental ensembles, choir, and handbells. All of these musical expressions help direct our praise to God.
Psalm 150:1-2
Praise the LORD! Praise God in His sanctuary;
praise Him in His mighty heavens! Praise him for His mighty deeds;
praise Him according to His excellent greatness!
Highlights and Opportunities
Our music ministry reaches beyond the Sunday service and outside the doors of the church building. Our choir and handbells visit local assisted living facilities to share our music with residents and staff, including spring and Christmas concerts. We also offer a beautiful Lessons and Carols Christmas program every December for the church and community and participate in downtown Mount Airy’s Christmas celebration.
