JOIN THE PAM COMMUNITY
The Presbyterian Association of Musicians (PAM) exists because we believe that formative and collaborative experiences with God and neighbor
nurture relationships and create community.
BECOME A
PAM MEMBER!
PAM is a national organization of the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) for people who are involved in the areas of worship, music, and the arts. Choir directors, organists, Christian educators, clergy, worship musicians, and lay people will find PAM to be a valuable resource for creative worship planning. PAM is not just for Presbyterians. Other denominations find our resources, conferences, and publications helpful in their service to God.
PAM Membership is open to everyone and is designed to assist worship and music leaders in worship planning, enrichment, employment, attending conferences, networking, engagement and education.
