First Church is blessed to have the talented Fred North, II as the leader of the music ministry.

Fred C. North II (BA), is descended from an old central CT family. He attended the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill from 1962-1966. He was active in the 50 voice UNC Varsity Men's Glee Club. At the end of his senior year they toured Europe, winning a prize in international competition.

Since then, Fred has directed and/or accompanied a variety of church choirs. He has also been a singing member of several vocal ensembles. He recently stepped down as Director of Music Ministries at the First Church of Christ in Simsbury prior to becoming the Choir Director/Organist at First Church of Coventry.

Fred and his wife Carol recently moved from Virginia. They have purchased Northington House, his grandparents home, fulfilling their dream of returning the estate to the North family. They operate an Antique Shop on Main St. in New Britain. First Church is also blessed to have some of Fred's children and grandchildren in active membership as well as leadership roles in our church.
