A Note From the Director
We welcome all – OPC members, friends, families and visitors – to join us in the Ministry of Music. We have handbell groups to suit people of all ages and abilities. There is no need to audition – you just need some musical ability and a heart for making “a joyful noise unto the Lord.”

If you or your children have an interest or questions, please contact Bert Erickson at:
