The adult choir leads the congregation in the singing and provides special choral music at Sunday 8:30 a.m. Mass and at major liturgies throughout the year. We want to help all members of the congregation sing as they should at Mass, and add to the beauty of our liturgies through song. Welcome are adults, high school age to senior citizen, who can carry a tune in a bucket, the choir being that bucket. Though very good singers are important and needed, the average singer is the backbone of our parish adult choir.
