"Praise the Lord!  How good it is to sing praises to our God;
for he is gracious, and a song of praise is fitting...
Sing to the Lord with thanksgiving; make melody to our God on the lyre."
~Psalm 147:1,7

Music has long been a part of the rich history and program ministry of St. Andrews-Covenant Presbyterian Church. In addition to supporting and enriching the services of worship of this congregation, music at St. Andrews–Covenant is viewed as a gift to be shared with the community.  Our Concert Series and musically-led seasonal services of worship often augment our regular Saturday and Sunday services of worship.  

Music at St. Andrews–Covenant is multi-generational in its scope, with particular emphasis placed on the music and worship education of children.  We seek to teach, uphold, and preserve the highest standard of integrity within the great and diverse traditions of music in the Christian church.   

Opportunities for musical education, participation, and involvement are available for ages 18 months through adults in a number of church choirs, ensembles and music learning environments, a listing of which appear below. Auditions are not required. 

The Music on Market Fine Art Series hosts concerts at St. Andrews-Covenant Presbyterian Church, generally held at 4:00pm on Fridays.  The series' primary focus is to provide quality, culturally diverse concerts and recitals for the members of St. Andrews–Covenant and the people of the greater Wilmington area.
