Music
Ministry 
“The faithful who gather together to
await the Lord’s coming are instructed by the Apostle Paul to
sing together psalms, hymns and inspired songs”
- Colossians 3:16 –
Liturgical song is the sign of the
heart’s joy, thus Saint Augustine
says rightly “To sing belongs to lovers.”
Music is at the heart of each and every celebration of
the mass, the scriptures call us to it.
New members are always welcomed to participate and aspect
of the parish’s diverse music ministry.
