ORGANIST POSITION #2

Hello, my name is Kathy Fisher and I am currently Director of Music at Cottonwood Presbyterian Church in Murray. I am retiring at the end of this year, and the church has requested my help in getting the word out to find my replacement.

My position has included playing the organ and piano for 10:00am Sunday services as well as special services (Christmas Eve, Holy Week, etc), directing and accompanying the adult choir, and directing the handbell choir. I also oversee maintenance of the piano(Steinway grand) and organ (new Rodgers 3-manual electronic), oversee the praise band (play once per month), and children’s choir (sing a few times per year). Weddings (rare) and funerals are an additional source of income.

The pastor is very supportive, the congregation is kind and caring. I have just loved it there for the past eight years. I am stepping down due to  family circumstances.

Interested people can contact Pastor Nathan Sautter at

They can also contact me at
if they have any questions about the position.

Please include this information in your announcements and newsletter. This is a wonderful position with a great organ, supportive pastor, and friendly congregation! Please let me know that you have received this email. Thank you!
