Artistic expression is an essential part of who we are as Christians.

God’s first act was a display of staggering creativity, borne out of love. One way we draw nearer to God is through creative expression of our own. Shandon values the arts and intentionally incorporates creativity into worship and congregational life more broadly. Read on for more information about both music and our Arts at Shandon ministry.
