At the foundation of Music Ministry is the belief that
nothing is more important than the song of the assembly. It involves every
member of our community as all are called to participate in the liturgy through
sung prayer. To add solemnity and beauty to our liturgies and paraliturgies,

special way to praise the Lord. Our choirs, cantors, and Schola Cantorum work
to enhance the song of the congregation. (Detailed Choir Information)
