On Sunday, May 24 at 10:00 AM, we will warm up an hour before the service and sing during worship. You do not have to have sung for previous Gospel Choir Sundays to participate in this one; all are invited, regardless of experience. Help us continue this wonderful new ensemble!

The Angel Choir of the First Presbyterian Church of Granville
Tuesday, June 2
7:00 PM
Overbrook will host a concert featuring a visiting youth choir from Granville, Ohio. This ensemble, founded in 1993, comprises middle- and high-school students who perform a wide variety of music. In addition to singing monthly in worship services, they embark on a tour every two years. We are indeed fortunate that their 2026 travels include the East Coast!
And this concert features a bonus OPC connection: their church's current pastor, Wallace Bubar, was pastor here for several years!
