Music “has the power to lead us back … to the Creator of all harmony, creating a resonance within us which is like being in tune with beauty and truth of God, with the reality which no human knowledge or philosophy can ever express.” Pope Benedict XVI

Throughout history, music has provided Christians with a wonderful means of expressing their faith. The choral experience involves performing the rich tradition of Catholic liturgical music, cultivating skills in singing and sight-reading, learning more about the liturgy of the Church and experiencing the satisfaction of glorifying God through music in the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass.

Our Music Ministry welcomes new members who have a true desire to be of service to God and the church.
