Music Ministry

SSJ_Choir

It is through the sacrament of Baptism that all liturgical ministers are called to be disciples of Jesus Christ!  We music makers, singers and instrumentalists take this call to discipleship to heart.  Listen to a few of our hymns and choral presentations.  However, the best way really enjoy the music is to come here to Mass on the weekend and add your voice to the exciting, beautiful music that our parish community has come to enjoy week after week.
