A native of North Carolina, John Williams served as musician in churches there and in New Jersey, Pennsylvania, New York, and Connecticut. He holds a BM in Church Music from Westminster Choir College, an MAR from Yale Divinity School Institute of Sacred Music, and the AGO Choirmaster certificate. After a stint in the editorial offices for a hymnal revision, he worked for many years in publishing and sang in the choirs his wife, Meg, directed. 

 

After eight and a half years as Organist-Director at Christ Church Bethany, CT, John retired to Maine and, as of January 2024, began sharing with Meg the position of Interim Music Director for State Street Church in Portland.
