Music at St. Paul's
Through music and liturgy at St.Paul's, we worship together as a community in one body. Our music program is lead by Choirmaster/Organist Mrs.Debbie Scott, who has over 47 years of church music knowledge. Our assistant organist Josiah Riddle member of the AGO is currently under the mentorship of Mrs. Scott. Since 1909 St.Paul's has used music to bring one another together. If you would like more information to be a part of the choir please visit our contact page.
