Music is a special form of prayer and sets the mood of the liturgical celebration. Music provides an inviting call to the parish to participate. This ministry is always looking for additional people who love to praise our Lord in song through singing or playing an instrument. Traditional as well as Contemporary Christian music is used during liturgy. There are various opportunities of involvement such as cantors, choir, ensembles or instrumentalists. Come join us!
Mission Statement
