The 2025 Bach festival begins with an organ concert featuring a variety of organists playing the music of Bach and his contemporaries on Westminster’s 1989 tracker-action Visser-Roland organ. The organ was designed by Pieter Visser, a native of Holland, who learned the art of organ building in his homeland before settling in the United States.
“Throughout the week, there are many worldly things pulling me away from my commitment to God. I come to church on Sunday at Westminster to reconnect and renew my relationship with Him. Part of my worship is to ask him for forgiveness for my lack of faithfulness. I leave, reminded that he loves me, forgives me, and walks beside me every day. What a profound blessing that is!”
