DERBY — The message is in the music in the ministry of the Rev. Larry Crasilli, pastor of Second Congregational Church.
Crasilli, of Southbury, is a Derby native. He has been singing since he was 17. He lived in Nashville for five years before returning to Connecticut.
In November 2010, Crasilli, 59, was ordained at Grace Faith Assembly in Danbury. He previously was a deacon and music director there, he said.
He and his wife, Doreen, 51, travel statewide, and into New York and Massachusetts, to bring their music to senior centers, nursing homes and assisted-living facilities.
