Music is located at the heart of First Cumberland Presbyterian Church and is a partner with the many ministries of our church. Vigorous hymn singing is a tradition within the congregation, and worshipers are uplifted by the variety of music offerings that our musicians bring.
Knowing that music is a powerful tool in making known the wide-embracing love of God, our musicians work diligently throughout the year to provide worship leadership.
Why not consider becoming a member of our music family? Our music ministry offers you a chance to let music be a part of your gift to God. We have a wide variety of musical opportunities for children, youth and adults. Each one of these ministry groups share the common goal of reaching others for Christ while deepening their personal relationship with God.

During the week, children are introduced to music reading, singing, playing musical games, learning to play the recorder, boomwackers and melody bells.
SANCTUARY CHOIR - This is an inter-generational group who enjoys singing. This choir leads our worship in the 10:30 a.m. service through hymn singing, anthems and special music. Cantatas and special programs are presented through the year. The choir is open to senior high students through senior adults and rehearses each Sunday evening at 5:00 p.m.
ARISE CHOIR - This choir sings contemporary Christian music and is for 9th grade youth through adults. They rehearse usually two times a month or when getting ready to sing. This choir does not require as much rehearsal time as the Sanctuary Choir. The rehearsal times will be at 7:00 p.m. on the 2nd and 4th Sundays.
SOLOISTS - We at First Cumberland are always looking for and welcome people who are willing to share their gift of song. Those who offer solos are welcomed and appreciated.
