First Lutheran Church embraces the arts as an opportunity to Share Christ's Love. Children's choirs, praise teams, instrumental groups, adult choir and bell choir all provide music for worship services. Instrumental and vocal soloists share their musical gifts during worship and other events. Artists create visual expressions that bring meaning, richness and texture to our worship experience. Drama and dance also provide ways to glorify God and share the love of Christ with others.
