M&M offers a mixture of contemporary and traditional music with the use of three different hymn books, special choir selections and solos, instrumental accompaniment and a nationally acclaimed pianist. 

Under the direction of Mark Salter, the come-as-you-are choir welcomes newcomers offering their voices in glory and praise.  Practice is on Thursday nights at 7:00pm and sometimes we break bread together first, and always have a laugh.

Thank you to everyone who supports our music ministry!

OPEN DOORS BENEFIT CONCERT SERIES

Join us Saturday, December 3 at 7:00pm as the noted Twin Cities ensemble La Bonne Chanson leads us in a good old-fashioned Christmas sing-a-long in our second benefit concert of the 2011-2102 season of great music for the OPEN DOORS Music Series.

This season, a portion of our proceeds will support the important work of 360 Communities - in particular, their emergency food shelf network, which is serving more people than ever.

There is no charge for admission; free-will donations are gratefully accepted.

Also, please bring canned goods and other non-perishable items to help ensure the 360 Communities food shelves can continue to meet the needs of our friends and neighbors throughout Dakota County.

All concerts are at Saints Martha & Mary Episcopal Church is at 4180 Lexington Avenue South (the northeast corner of Lexington Avenue and Diffley Road) in Eagan.

About The Artists

La Bonne Chanson is a group of Twin Cities professional musicians founded in 2009 and dedicated to reviving and preserving the art of the song recital. They bring traditional and contemporary songs, mélodie, lieder, and chanson to a variety of venues and audiences throughout the Twin Cities in an effort to help foster a renewed interest in the art form of classical singing.

The group will perform several of their own pieces and then lead the audience in a sing-a-long of popular Christmas songs. The first half of the concert will feature sacred hymns and carols, while the second half will focus on pop music.

For more information, please visit their website.

About 360 Communities

Founded 40 years ago by a group of dedicated volunteers, 360 Communities has evolved into an organization that uses community engagement to positively shape the future of our communities.

360 Communities operates five food shelves to serve residents of Dakota County. This vital network provides immediate aid and connects individuals and families with resources to help them on their journey to self-sustained success.

But emergency food relief is just one of many services provided by the 360 Communities staff and more than 2,000 volunteers. To learn more, visit the 360 Communities website.
