“To sing well is to pray twice” is a saying attributed to St. Augustine. The Second Vatican Council (aka “Vatican II”) also strongly highlighted the integral role of music for our Liturgy and worship, primarily as a form of active participation engaged in by the entire assembly, not just the choir and musicians.

I am pleased to announce that we have hired Clare Lee to join our parish staff as our new Music Coordinator, effective Dec. 9, 2024. Clare will work part-time and report directly to Michael, our Director of Liturgy. Clare brings a wealth of experience and has some familiarity with many of our music ministers. She has served as a volunteer since October. Please give a warm welcome to Clare. We are very fortunate to have her on our team. Fr. Matt
