Music, Arts & Worship
Come, let us sing for joy to the Lord; let us shout aloud to the rock of our salvation. - Psalm 95:1
MUSIC MINISTRIES AT PULASKI HEIGHTS
Music is a big part of who we are at Pulaski Heights United Methodist Church.
Have you ever thought about becoming part of PHUMC’s musical and artistic family, where laughter and fellowship are as important as the music?
From being involved in Classic worship, Modern worship, or technology, there are lots of opportunities to get involved! If so, PHUMC offers a multitude of ways to worship and connect through music and the arts. For more information, click on the area you are interested in below.

Background: In 2006 and 2007, Arminta Berry made generous contributions totaling $100,000 to the Pulaski Heights United Methodist Church Foundation (PHUMC) to establish the Stanley and Arminta Berry Music and Arts Scholarship. The music and arts ministry of this church was extremely important to the late Mr. Berry and continues to be of vital significance to Mrs. Berry. When Mrs. Berry made the donation, she said, “This church has meant a great deal to our family for almost 50 years. Because of all it has done for the Berry family, I want to make a contribution to its future so that its ministries will continue to help others.” The vision and foresight of the Berry family will indeed help others in their church family for years to come as talented young people are given the opportunity to further their education in one of the arts. The Berry Music & Arts scholarship application is available starting in January.
