Music Ministry

Welcome to the Church of the Holy Family and St. Columba Catholic Church Music Ministry!

 

My name is Nicole Bernier and I’m the Music Ministry Director here at the Church of the Holy Family. Our Music Ministry program is just that…

A Ministry… one more way to reach people, climb right into their hearts, express the general theme for the Mass or Service.

Enterthesong 1There are generally two things that change at weekend Masses: The homily and the music. Much time and effort is put into blending these together as much as possible so you can get the most out of the Liturgy. Music is just one more way to pray, to come together in worship, and share our love for each other, and for our God.

Our Music Ministry program is over 100 members strong and strives to offer a wide variety of styles at all Masses …’ something for everyone. We currently have 13 Cantors, an Adult-Choir, a Praise Band, a Teen Choir, and a Youth Choir. Our choirs run from mid-September until Pentecost each year.

Cantors:

Each Cantor has a particular style, some more classical, contemporary rock, traditional, etc. - All great! Each Cantor sings at Masses that are convenient for them on a rotating basis.

Adult-Choir:

Our Adult Choir is a very close-knit group that has been together for many years. They sing traditional and some more contemporary choral music. Rehearsals are held each Wednesday evening from 7:30 to 9:00 and sing at alternating Masses every other weekend from mid-September to early June each year. We would love to have you join us!

Praise Band:

Our Praise Band is an awesome Christian Rock Band. They love the music they play and our parishioners do too! This group rehearses on Thursday evenings from 7:30 – 9:00 and sings at alternating Masses every other weekend from mid-September through early June each year.

We love what we do, we love each other, and we love our Ministry.

I know with all my heart that God had plans to bring me to this parish family a very long time before the parish was even formed. This is one GREAT place, truly a Holy Family of its own. I always welcome suggestions, ideas, comments…. at any time.

It is never too late to join us…just stop by and introduce yourself!
