Music Ministry

Psalm 150

Praise the LORD. Praise God in his sanctuary,
Praise him in his mighty heavens.
Praise him for his acts of power, Praise him for his surpassing greatness.
Praise him with the sounding of the trumpet,
Praise him with the harp and lyre.
Praise him with tambourine and dancing,
Praise him with the strings and flute.
Praise him with the clash of cymbals, Praise him with resounding cymbals.
Let everything that has breath Praise the LORD. Praise the LORD!

Our Music Ministry program welcomes all those who wish to serve the Catholic Community of Our Lady of Lourdes. Opportunities are open to singers and musicians. One can serve as a singer in one of our choirs, or as a cantor at our various liturgies. One can also serve as a musician: flutist, brass player, stringed instruments (guitars, cellist etc.) percussionist, or pianist/keyboardist. All are welcome!


9:00 a.m. Choir

Music ministry is a vitally important component of the liturgy. Although our community is blessed with a talented, experienced and dedicated choir, we are always looking for and welcome new members. Weekly rehearsals are from 7:30 to 9:00 p.m. on Thursday evenings and Sunday mornings at 8:15 a.m. warm-up and Mass at 9:00 a.m.

11:30 a.m. Choir

This is a new choir as of last winter. If you can match pitch but don’t have choir experience, this is the choir for you. All are welcome. Rehearsals are on Tuesdays from 7:00 to 8:30 p.m. This choir sings at the 11:30 a.m. Mass with an 11:00 a.m. warm up.

Handbells

Our Lady of Lourdes Church has 3-octaves of Malmark hand bells. Rehearsals are held on Thursdays from 6:00 to 7:15 p.m.

Resurrection Choir

This group is contacted by Email when a funeral is scheduled. There are no rehearsals. Members come to the funeral service, sit near the cantor and give support for the congregational singing.

Calling All Instrumentalists

All string players, brass players, winds and guitarists are welcomed. If you are competent on an instrument, come and share your gifts with the congregations. Most of the songs in our hymnal have instrumental parts.
