Worship
Music Opportunities
There are numerous opportunities at MGLC to share your musical talents!
Our mission is to create and maintain meaningful worship experiences in the Lutheran tradition for all age groups, and encourage regular attendance and active participation in our family of faith. By doing so we strive to make and nurture disciples of all ages.
Children's Choir
Exciting songs include lots of movement, sign language, and a few surprises. The Choirs sing monthly during worship services and some festive services. Come and join the fun as we offer up our voices in praise and worship. New children are welcome to join the fun!

All others who play woodwinds, brass, strings and percussion should contact Jens Jensen to become part of our growing instrumental talent group.
