Clarance Smith

Co-Interim Worship and Music Director

Howdy, my name is Clarance Smith. I'm originally from Texas, but I've lived in the Twin Cities for over 30 years. My wife Denise lives in a memory care residence and we have two children, a daughter and a son. My household also includes Suki, a 12-pound bundle of canine joy! I'm passionate about our Lutheran heritage and I love Lutheran theology, liturgy, and hymnody. When it comes to worship, I'd like each and every Woodlake worship to be engaged with the Gospel through both the hymns and the preaching. See you in church!
