Donate!

OYH is a proud sponsor of As Music Heals. This fund, established and administered by the Liturgical Composers’ Forum, seeks to provide assistance to church musicians who have experienced furlough or loss of employment because of the effects of COVID-19. Please give what you can by clicking the “donate” button.

To help raise funds and awareness, we hosted a special two-night virtual concert featuring composers, text-writers, and artists from the world of church music. You can re-watch the concerts below or on our Facebook page, facebook.com/openyourhymnal. Below you’ll also find a full line-up of appearances and links to more information about the songs that were offered. Please share these concerts and the donation information with your friends, families, and faith communities!
