Music

_MG_2156.jpg

From the beginning of time, music has played an integral part in worship.

At Southport Congregational Church, we value and lift up music at every service. From the traditional to the modern, from classical to folk, the music that can be hard in our church is as varied as its congregation.

If you are interested in joining any of the choirs, you are welcome to do so! And it’s simple, just contact the person in charge!
