A Happy Musical Development

10:00 AM — O Blessed Trinity
11:00 AM — Abide in me
12:00 PM Noon — Salve Regina
1:00 PM — As with Gladness, Men of old
2:00 PM — Hail to the Lord’s Anointed
3:00 PM — Love came down
4:00 PM — I heard the voice of Jesus say
4:30 PM — Flowers of the Forest (bag pipes)
5:00 PM — How great Thou Art
5:30 PM — Fur Elise
6:00 PM — Hail Holy Queen Enthroned Above
6:30 PM — Goin’ Home (bag pipes)

An Invitation for You!
Sharing our gifts in the love of Christ is not only a blessing for our community, but it is also a chance for us to give back to our baptismal promise. We at St. Mary- St. Catherine need your help and your gifts in our inclusive music program right here at the parish. Musicians of all kinds and levels are not only welcomed but encouraged to join the team.
So, you may be asking how can I be a part of this great opportunity to be an even more active part at Mass?
Well, I’m Glad you asked (or I hope you did)! Our Music ministry program offers a hands-on, Mass by Mass commitment that will fit anyone’s busy schedule. All resources are easily accessible from home or at the parish and rehearsals are right before Mass.
If you’re already coming to fulfill your weekly obligation why not come 45 minutes earlier to support our team and the community?
If you have any questions you can email, call, or text anytime to find out more information. Even if you do not have the confidence at this time, please reach out anyway. We are a church community, and I am always available to at least have a conversation about the potential of sharing your gifts.
One step at a time!
And for the chance that you don’t have a musical bone in your body, like my mom, I would love to meet you and maybe share some hymn suggestions for the team to carry out during Mass.
Many thanks for your continued Support! I look forward to hearing from you, bye for now!
Whether you are a musician or novice please contact John Anthony Volpe our Director of music for information on how you can be part of the team.
