Music Ministry
Our celebrations need music! Music that lifts the heart and spirit, music that we enjoy, participate in and sing. To truly celebrate the mystery of our faith, we must sing the Lord's song, so singers, cantors and instrumentalists (guitarists, keyboardists, flutists, percussionists and brass players) are essential.
"Come make a joyful noise unto the Lord..."
The Alumni Chapel Choir is open to anyone who likes to sing or play an instrument. The 11AM Mass features inspiring, familiar hymns from the Catholic songbook, while the 10PM Mass blends traditional liturgy with contemporary praise and worship music. For more information or to get involved, please visit the Choir page.
