Meet the King of Instruments Sunday, April 13 Our Minister of Music, Maury A Castro guided all Eliot family members, both young and old alike, through our glorious Bozeman organ. All were encouraged to strike some keys, push some pedals, pull some knobs and get a close-up view of the pipes. What fun! Maury offers this unique opportunity several times each year. Check out our calendar for future tours.

A Mini Concert is an opportunity to enjoy a small dose of excellent live music and musicians in a very convenient location – right here at Eliot Church. They are30-minute concerts from 11:30 a.m. to noon in the Sanctuary. Here's how it works: Come to church. After church, get a bagel, coffee, and chat. Leave your kids with our free child-care. Then come into the sanctuary at 11:30 and enjoy some fine music for as long as you might watch Frasier or Jeopardy. Feel refreshed!
