Enlivening Our Worship and Lives
The Music Ministry at Myers Park Covenant Church has deep roots in traditional, classical, and sacred music but also continues to expand our repertoire to include diverse styles of music from classic rock and jazz to musical theater and folk music. We believe all music is sacred.
Although we partner with many musicians throughout the city, our flagship ensemble is our Chancel Choir. If you would like to join us, please contact our Interim Minister for Music and Worship, David Tang.

Diverse Music for Diverse Tastes
Here at MPBC, we recognize that sacred music can be more broadly interpreted. Each week, you will experience not only different songs, but diverse types of music, generally matching the theme for the week.
