Music Ministry

Dear Reader,     
 
Welcome to the Saint Francis of Assisi Catholic Church Music Ministry web page.  For thousands of years, the Catholic Church  has generated,  commissioned, and been the inspiration for countless musical works of  art. Today's world needs the music of God. 

At Saint Francis, we are committed to offering life-giving music at all of our musical liturgies.  It is our prayer that those who hear our offering will feel the Spirit of God within and that they will  be renewed, invigorated, and comforted. Just as all things within the  Church glow with God's holy presence, so too should our music glow as it is consecrated to holy use by God through prayerful musicians. Church musicians should always seek to be humble and realize that they are instruments of our Lord. Forged in the fires of God and man united, real music is made. 

On this earth we strive with all our skill to produce the finest music we can. Perhaps by this striving in love and friendship with one another, we may be blessed with glimpses of the celestial music of Heaven. 

The gift of music is a treasure to be shared. The Music Ministry  department at St. Francis offers a wide variety of musical experiences  for parishioners of all ages. We are constantly welcoming new members to our choir for the 9:30 Mass. Whether you are interested in singing or are an instrumentalist of any kind, you can be sure that you will be joining people with whom you will share many wonderful moments of making music and lively fellowship.


If you are interested in joining, please fill out the
Join the St. Francis Choir sign-up form by clicking the underlined link, and I will get in touch with you  promptly.

May you be blessed and inspired to serve the Lord  with gladness and come before His presence with the music of your soul.
 
Peace in Christ,
 
Robert A. Hull II
Director of Music Ministry
  
MISSION STATEMENT:  To glorify God through liturgically-enriched music.

Saint Francis music ministry strives to:
 
  1. Provide a sacred atmosphere of reverence in worship through sacred  music in
    accordance with the Magisterium of the Roman Catholic Church.
  2. Dedicate ourselves to the development of an inspiring music program,
    within the parish and through community programs.
  3. Preserve the ancient traditions of Roman Catholic music by  presenting
    and offering them in an engaging, life-giving, contextual,  and accessible
    way.
  4. Thus serve God with humility and grace.

The Music Ministry is involved in Masses for some Weekday Masses, Holy Hours, all Weekend Masses, Holy Day Masses, Wedding, and Funeral Liturgies
