Music Ministry

The Music Ministry enhances and supports the Liturgy of the St. Thomas More community. We are composed of many musicians of different backgrounds. Some of us have studied music, some of us are just starting, but we all come together to sing, play and praise God through music. We try to sing with joy!

There are three main parts of the Music Ministry:

  1. Music for Masses every weekend.
  2. Music for Christmas Eve Vigil.
  3. Music for the Triduum, Holy Thursday, Good Friday and Easter Vigil.
If you have a desire to join the Music Ministry without committing to too much time, consider singing in either the Christmas Eve Choir or the Triduum Choir. Rehearsals generally run during Advent and Lent.

Our season of Lent is here and we are doing some special things with the music ministry. Please read more here.

I invite any to come and join us. We have fun, we make music, we praise God. It is a good combination!
