Women’s Ensemble
This choir is an auditioned group of singers. An ability to read and learn music quickly, sing in tune and blend well with other voices is required. This group sings at a Mass once a month and sings a wide variety of styles from chant and Latin Motels to contemporary music.
Instrumentalists
We have a number of talented instrumentalists who play at Mass on a regular basis. We would like to have a few more instrumentalists so we can put together some small chamber groups to play occasionally at Mass.
Cantors
The cantors sing the responsorial psalm and lead the parish in singing the hymns and Mass parts. It is not necessary to sing every week. Rehearsal time is provided and audio recordings are made available for learning music. A brief meeting and audition is required.
Resurrection Choir
This choir provides an important ministry by singing for funerals and Memorial Masses. If you enjoy singing and are available during the week please contact Beth Stone .
