Wild Blue Herons have expanded to include a horn section and have just released their 3rd album, It’s All About Love. Their music ranges from funky jazz to soul pop.

Jazz Vespers in the Valley starts on select Sundays each month at 3:30pm.

Typically, our services last for an hour, and in Northwood fashion, we offer a time of fellowship over coffee, tea and home baked goods prior to Vespers. 

The Jazz Vespers service provides a time where jazz meets the Spirit in a time of reflection and prayer. Free will donation
