Music

Let everything that breathes praise the Lord! – Psalm 150:6

Music is an important part of worship at UPC. From soaring sacred choral anthems to quiet instrumental offerings to congregational hymns accompanied by our organ, we are grateful for the musicians and choirs of all ages who share their gifts in worship.
