Music Ministry – Who We Are
The Music Ministry of St. Mark the Evangelist Catholic Church is comprised of adults, teens, and children, who commit themselves to fostering the sung prayer of the assembly - inspiring its communal worship of God, nourishing its faith life, and supporting its parish mission statement: "To spread the good news of Jesus Christ to all God's people by word and action."
Each week, the members of St. Mark’s Music Ministry seek to enhance the spirituality of our community through sung prayer. They do this in a variety of ways: through their participation in a choir, as instrumentalists, or as cantors. Our members, from the young through the young at heart, all share the same purpose: to return their gifts of time and talent to their community so that all may be inspired to praise and honor God. In the process, friendships are formed, knowledge is gained, faith is deepened, and perhaps, even a new part of one’s self is awakened.
Perhaps you have previous choir experience, play an instrument, or have other musical talents. Or, perhaps you simply love to sing and wish to nurture and develop that interest. Whatever the case, we would love to have you join us for music, fellowship and sharing as we praise God through this special ministry. We encourage you to share your gifts with your parish community. Each choir or ensemble has scheduled rehearsal time weekly, unless otherwise noted, and sings/plays for a specific liturgy on Sunday, or as scheduled at other liturgies and special events at St. Mark.
We welcome all who are interested in serving in our music ministry and value your individual gifts and contributions. Below you will find a list of offerings. For more information, please contact the music ministry office. We look forward to hearing from you!
