Music:
We also have an excellent music program for children, youth and adults including both vocal and bell groups. Our organist, Al Purdy adds greatly to our worship both at the Aeolian-Skinner pipe organ and the piano. Susan Pirone and John Collison bring their musical expertise to our Chancel Choir and Bell Choir.
Music is an integral part of the worship experience at the Tunkhannock United Methodist Church. Our vision for the music program of this church is to provide the opportunity for meaningful and enriching musical expressions of worship for people of all ages.
