Our Guest Pianist is Lonnie Wescott

For the next three Sunday's, Northwood Congregational Church welcomes Lonnie Wescott as our guest pianist.  Lonnie is the Music  Director for R. W. Traip Academy in Kittery, Maine.  Traip is the public high school for Kittery and Kittery Point.  He is originally from Casco, Maine.  Growing up, he attended the Casco Village Church, U.C.C., where his mother was the church organist for over 50 years and his dad sang bass in the choir.  He and his wife Leisa live in Berwick, Maine, and have four children and two grandsons.  They enjoy traveling, motorcycling, and on most weekends Lonnie plays piano and saxophone with his Motown band, “The SoulMate Band”.  Leisa never misses a show!

Special Music During Summer Sunday Services

The choir does not sing during July and August, so we are looking for individuals who would like to sing or play an instrument for our Special Music during Summer Sunday services.  If you have a suggestion, or would like to volunteer your talent, please speak with Faith Levesque.
