Music and Worship
The Music That Became Part of Church Memory
Methodist music has been a constant of worship in Rushville — carried by generations of musicians and remembered across the years.
The book's chapter on Methodist Music records a tradition that runs through the congregation's entire story: singing and music-making as part of worship, sustained by generations of musicians, choirs, and volunteers.
Music holds memory in a way few things do. For the people of the church, the hymns and the musicians who led them became part of how the congregation remembers its two centuries of faith.
Drawn from the book's chapter on Methodist Music.
