Music

Choir
Our choir rehearses Sunday morning from 9:45-10:45 and serves at the 11:00am liturgy. This ensemble also provides the music for special liturgies and Holy Days throughout the year.  We welcome those singers who are 11 and older (younger children will be considered by audition).

Cantors
Singers who feel comfortable leading the assembly as a minister of music.  These singers will be scheduled for Masses based on their preferred frequency and availability. They will be expected to rehearse either with the choir or an accompanist the week in which they are scheduled to sing. Cantor Rehearsal is every Wednesday at 6pm in the Music room.

Funeral Choir
This choir is comprised of those who minister to the bereaved at funerals as needed.  We do not have regular practices, but rather meet the day of the funeral for a brief rehearsal before the service.  This is a very special ministry especially for those families who are grieving.

We welcome any person in the parish who would like to participate as an instrumentalist with whichever instrument they play.  A successful audition is required in addition to following an instrumental policy.
