Join Our Music Ministry
“He who sings prays twice.” – St. Augustine
Music has always held a special place in the worship of the Catholic Church. From the psalms of King David to the hymns sung by the early Christians, music has been a powerful way of lifting our hearts and voices to God. In the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, music does more than beautify the liturgy—it helps us enter more deeply into the mystery of Christ’s presence among us.
Why Join the Music Ministry?
When you join the music ministry, you are offering more than just your voice or instrumental talent—you are offering a gift of service to God and to His Church. Music in the liturgy helps the faithful pray, unites the assembly in one voice, and raises our minds to heaven. As St. Paul reminds us:
“Sing psalms, hymns, and spiritual songs with gratitude in your hearts to God” (Colossians 3:16).
Through your participation, you become part of something greater than yourself—a ministry that touches hearts, strengthens faith, and supports the liturgical life of our parish.

-

-

Your Invitation
If you feel the Lord stirring your heart to serve through music, we warmly invite you to join us. Whether you are a seasoned musician or just beginning, your “yes” can make a difference. Remember the words of the Psalmist:
“Sing to the Lord a new song; sing to the Lord, all the earth” (Psalm 96:1).
Come share your gifts, deepen your faith, and help lead our parish in prayer through music. Together, let us give glory to God—because in singing, we truly pray twice.
