Henry Doktorski, Organist
Henry Doktorski began his professional music career at the age of twelve when he played at a birthday party in Menlo Park, New Jersey. Since then, he has played on piano, organ, harpsichord, celeste and accordion with dozens of symphony orchestras and chamber ensembles. He began his church music career in 1987, which has continued to this day. Henry explained, "I enjoy all kinds of music, but sacred music is especially dear to my heart. I have found that beautiful and inspiring music can touch people's hearts and help them to connect with God and their brothers and sisters. Like Martin Luther, I also believe, "Next to the Word of God, the noble art of music is the greatest treasure in the world."

Cheri Kendall, Interim Music Director
I am the oldest of four siblings and I grew up spiritually in the Lutheran church. My enjoyment of the various liturgical settings and hymns fuels my passion for each day. Music serves such a high purpose, and my focus will be to instill and inspire increased music appreciation for all who intersect with me and/or House of Prayer. Did you know that I once flung my husband over my shoulder onto a mat during a Jiu-Jitsu session.
