Jean Thiel
Jean Thiel came to First Presbyterian Church as organist in Autumn 1999. Since her earliest years in Sunday School, sacred music and the Word, have played a key role in connecting her faith and life’s larger issues on a weekly or moment by moment basis.

A Midwesterner who moved to the Metropolitan New York area and stayed for nearly twenty-five years, Jean has heard and played organs in sixteen European countries. She has witnessed that Christian prayer and praise, in word and song, is a primary element of life’s best gifts; especially when founded on faith in God’s love and Christ’s sacrifice.

Jean’s encouraging and favorite passage is “The Lord is my strength and my song, and is become my Salvation”.

Jean loves traveling, gardening, the precision/strategy of golf, and the time/space intersection of acoustics.
