“God has bestowed upon his people the gift of song. God dwells within each human person, in the place where music takes its source. Indeed, God, the giver of song, is present whenever his people sing his praises.” Sing to the Lord – Music in Divine Worship
The music ministry enhances our liturgies, both vocally and instrumentally, within the Church’s rich tradition of music. We are blessed to be able to use our talents to His glory and participate in a loving and joy-filled community.

Choirs Available
Adult Choir practices Thursdays at 7 p.m. in the church. Come try it out! Bring a friend and see if it might be a good fit for you.
Bell Choir practices Tuesdays at 7 p.m. in the church. We have an open spot for someone who wants to joining this fun group.
Children's Choir provides children in grades 2-5 a wonderful opportunity to develop and share their gifts, offer joyful praise to God, and serve our parish community. During the school year, the Children's Choir rehearses on Wednesday afternoons after school and sings at the 9:00 and 11:00 am Masses 1-2 times/month. Nativity Parish School, public school, and home school singers are welcome to participate!
Sunday Night Ensemble is our parish music ensemble for middle and high school musicians. In this Spirit-filled group, singers and instrumentalists share their musical gifts with fresh energy at the Sunday 5:00 pm Mass. Virtus-trained adult musicians willing to serve as musical mentors are also welcome.
Resurrection Choir is the perfect fit for someone who likes to sing but is unable to make the weekly commitment for the adult choir. Singing for the funeral Masses is a wonderful way to serve our parish families in their time of need.
Cantors (people who lead the singing at Masses). We have a fabulous group of cantors, but it is good to keep growing. If you have had some singing experience and can read music, please consider being part of this ministry.
Instrumentalists Have you noticed how alive the music sounds when we add some additional instruments? If you are proficient on an instrument and would like to occasionally help, please reach out. There is always a place for you.
For more information on any of these groups, or to sign up, please contact Vicky Neely, [email protected] or 913.491.5017.
