An August '22 update from Dennis...

Going forward, HC will rehearse at 5:30 p.m. beginning on September 14th.  Wednesday Cafe is on again this year, which begins at 5:00 p.m. so I want to at least give an opportunity for the youth to eat before rehearsal and have some fellowship time.  If we as an ensemble thing we need more time or want to do more things, then we may start a little earlier and/or add a rehearsal.  Typically rehearsals were on Mondays.  I would love more time with the youth to help develop them as musicians and leaders, but I also know how busy they are.  

Finally, as a youth involved or as a parent of a youth, what things are going well?  What would you like to see more of?  What am I not thinking about?  

Feel free to drop a line or two whenever you need.  I am here!  

Look forward to another fun year of Holy Commotion. 

Blessings on the rest of your summers, 

In Christ,

About Dennis

Dennis has been involved in music ministry for almost 30 years.  He has been involved in planning and leading traditional and contemporary worship services...and everything in between.  Dennis finds the value of multiple forms and styles of worship because people are different, have different interests and connect differently to God.  It is our responsibility to provide that opportunity for connection regardless of the form worship takes.  Dennis enjoys spending time ice fishing or playing disc golf with his son, Grayson.  He is blessed to lead both Servant song and Holy Commotion at Immanuel.  

DEGREES:  Bachelor's of Science in Vocal Music Education from North Dakota State University
