Suzan Garau

Music Director

Associate of Arts – Special Studies, Music – Mt. Hood Community College 

 I’ve been involved with worship ministry for over 25 years in small and large churches, playing keys, directing choirs, orchestras and bands and leading worship. I also teach piano and play in a working band, but bringing people into worship of our God is where my passion resides. I am always interested in raising up and releasing gifted people into music ministry, and I’m looking forward to seeing the worship life of Prince of Life Lutheran grow and thrive.
