Message from the Dean
Greetings from your very own Chapter of the American Guild of Organists. Our ministry from the organ bench, however, is ongoing. I love to lead the congregation in song. It is such a thrill to worship in “mass”, sort of speak, and hear the congregation (at least most of the time) in oneness ebb and flow through some of their favorite hymns. What a blessing you ALL are to the churches of our chapter. Thank you for your willingness to hang in there even during the rough patches that we all experience. Let’s keep our “eyes on the ball” which is Jesus Christ, His love, and His ministry.Blessings to you all!
