A Passion for Music is in the DNA of Second Pres.

Besides at home and at church, you are most likely to find Second Pres members hanging out the many musical performances at the Vern Riffe Center for the Arts at Shawnee State University, including the Musical Theatre student productions. 


Our favorite event is our yearly Festival of Nine Lesson & Carols where we gather with our friends from the community, some SSU choir students, and a full orchestra to celebrate Jesus, the newborn King. We regularly fill up our sanctuary that can fit about 500 people and delight in sharing the joy of the Christmas season with our community. 


Videos of individuals songs from previous Lessons & Carols services can be found by searching YouTube.
