Join Our Parish Choir and Sing Joyfully to the LORD!
As we begin the 2023-2024 choral season, we extend a heartfelt invitation to you to embrace the heart of Psalm 95 and "come before Him with a song of praise."
About Us: Our parish choir is more than just a collection of voices; we are a close-knit group united by our shared passion for music and our love for our Catholic faith. For years, we've been harmonizing together to inspire our community to live our mission: "We find Christ here. We bring Christ to the world."
What Sets Us Apart:
Inclusivity: Our choir welcomes voices of all ranges and skill levels. Whether you're an experienced vocalist or new to singing, there's a place for you in our choir family.
Spiritual Fulfillment: By joining our choir, you're not just singing; you're contributing to the spiritual enrichment of our parish. Your voice becomes an instrument of praise, helping to humbly serve at the sacrifice of Holy Mass.
Community Bonding: Singing at choir rehearsals and praying at Mass provide a unique opportunity to forge deep connections with fellow parishioners who share your passion for music and faith.
2023-2024 Season Highlights: This season promises an exciting lineup of hymns, choral classics, and contemporary pieces that resonate with the heart of our community. From Advent to Easter and everything in between, we'll be weaving melodies that reflect the liturgical calendar and the significance of each season.
First Rehearsal: Wednesday, September 6, 2023 Mark your calendars! Our first rehearsal for the new season will take place on Wednesday, September 6th at 7:30 PM in the church. It's the perfect opportunity to meet fellow choir members and start this musical journey together.
Join Us: If you've ever felt the urge to lend your voice to our choir, now is the perfect time to take that step. Didn't make the first rehearsal? Not a problem! Rehearsals will continue every Wednesday at 7:30 PM after the first meeting. Don't worry if you're new; we're here to welcome and guide you.
How to Get Involved: To join the choir simply sign up on our Choir Registration Page. Our Music Coordinator, Johanna Smith, will reach out to your personally after that. If you have any questions or need more information, please contact her at jsmith@olmc.org or ext. 117.
In Conclusion: As Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI wisely said, “Learning to sing in chorus is not merely an exercise in internal hearing and the voice; it is also an education of inner hearing - an exercise and an education in life and in peace."
Come join us in this harmonious and faith-filled ministry. Together, we'll create melodies that resonate far beyond our church walls. Join us in praising our Lord, and let your voice be heard!
