Thomas K. Beecher, Crytal Eastman, and Mark Twain were part of this fascinating history. Music at ParkMusic at Park is intertwined with the Church's rich history. The beautiful organ music, a dedicated adult choir, and an innovative children's program encourages active participation by members of the congregation, no matter what their age (yes, the tenderness of a baby crying is music to our ears!).
