Music Ministry

The Ministry of Music at Second Presbyterian Church is about leading the congregation’s song–its hymns, responses, and liturgy–as choirs and congregation give musical wings to the Gospel. The Music Ministry is rooted in the vast treasury of old and new sacred art repertoire that unites strong, God-centered texts with well-crafted music. The Music Ministry of Second Church is an integral part of the congregation’s worship life and witness in downtown Richmond and beyond. There is a place here for anyone who desires to learn and grow, and to serve and praise God through music.
