Music is a very important part of our ministry and worship experience.  We consider our music program to be one of the highlights of our worship experience.  If you love contemporary praise music as well as the classic hymns, then Riverlawn is the place to be!

Pam Johnson has served as Music Director for 29 years with duties including directing the Adult Choir, Handbell Quartet and providing organ & piano music for both the 8:45 and 11:00 worship services as well as pianist for the Praise Band.

 

ADULT CHOIR     This choir provides music for the 11:00 worship service each week as well as music for special occasions such as Christmas and Easter cantatas. They rehearse on Thursday evenings.  The choir is open to adults (high school age and older).  No auditions are required; just a love of singing for the Lord.
