The Choir sings a variety of styles of sacred music from tradition, contemporary, to Gospel, and is open to all ages! Not only does the choir enjoy each mass celebration, but they love to fellowship with one another over food and enjoyment! Rehearsals are on Friday evenings 5:30-6:30 pm in the church.
