Chris Fortin

The members of the Music Search Committee are overjoyed to inform the congregation that we have called a new Director of Music Ministries to provide musical leadership and vision for the Presbyterian Church in Basking Ridge.  Christopher Fortin was unanimously approved by our session on Thursday night.

He is currently the Director of Worship and Music at the Presbyterian Church at New Providence, where he has inspired choirs and musicians to lead in worship for over 12 years.  Chris is a graduate of Westminster Choir College of Rider University, and has also led music ministries in Presbyterian churches in Morris Plains and Mount Holly, NJ.  Chris is an outstanding musician with a passion for ministry.  He strives to enhance worship through music.  In addition to his vocal, choral and keyboard skill, he brings a love of composing and arranging music.  He brings special talents and experience for music in both traditional and informal worship styles.

Chris is excited to join us in Basking Ridge on April 13th.  The Music Search Committee would like to thank the congregation and choirs for their patience, support, and prayer during the search process.   Music Search Committee:  Karen Johnson (chairperson), Nancy  DiSisto, Jeff Haines, Ted Hoag, Charles King, Judy Pasnik, Barbara Perkins, Don Wadsworth.
