Music Ministry
House of Prayer is blessed with incredible and dedicated musicians. Worship services regularly include special music such as guest musicians, soloists, choir anthems, bell choir songs, Orf instruments, our Spanish language choir, and even a guest Mariachi band.
Choir rehearsals are every Wednesday, and other rehearsals are coordinated as needed. The choir rests during the Summer.
If you are a singer, a ringer, or another instrumentalist please contact us. We would love to have you join in our music program! All skill levels are welcome.

Outreach Team
In order to serve our community, we first need to know our community. Our Outreach Team is devoted to building authentic relationships between the Church and the neighborhood. They do this through meetings with community members, listening sessions, survey work, networking events, and visiting local organizations. This group brings their information to the Church Council and congregation in order to prayerfully guide our ministry opportunities.
Quilters
The quilting group of House of Prayer works all year to create beautiful quilts that are then sent around the world to communities in need through Lutheran World Relief.

Youth and Family Ministry
