Michael Schreffler, Organist
Sunday, February 9, 2025 at 3:00 p.m.
Michael Schreffler began his musical studies at the age of nine with piano lessons, as well as instruction in violin and trumpet. Shortly before college, his grandmother arranged for him to take some organ lessons and, around the same time, a concert artist performed on the newly acquired organ at his family’s home church. Thus inspired, he continued pursuing organ instruction through college, studying with Rebecca Borthwick.
Alongside several full-time careers, most recently in the insurance industry, Michael has served part-time as a church musician, filling that role for congregations in southwestern Pennsylvania and
northwest and central Ohio. In the years since college, he has received further instruction in organ from Craig Dobbins, John Walker, Robert Glasgow and Dr. Richard Fitzgerald.
Michael makes his home in Columbus and serves as organist for Saint Mark’s Episcopal Church, Upper Arlington.
