Vision Statement

The Ministry of Music

at Hennepin seeks to energize and beautify worship and the lives of both hearers and participants. Both inside the church and in the greater community, we seek to bring glory to God through the gifts God has given us: voices, hands, faces, each other, art, and above all, God’s love.

The music staff consists of William Mathis, Minister of Music and Fine Arts, and Andrew Hackett, Organist.

Our singing choirs include possibilities for everyone from 4 years of age through adult. Call the Music Office for more information, 612-435-1319 or contact William Mathis here.
