Music

If you have the gift of music, then these groups may be just the right ministry for you. The  choirs, cantors and musicians serve the worshipping community of St. Mary’s during liturgical celebrations by supporting and encouraging a singing assembly.  They consist of singers who serve as scheduled, and a variety of instrumentalists who serve either weekly or as needed for special celebrations. 

Participation in any of these music ministries is open to all persons interested in being cantors, accompanists or choir members. 

• The adult choir rehearses every Thursday evening from Sept.-May at 5:30pm in the big church.  This choir sings for the 2nd Sunday, 9am Mass and the 4th Saturday, 5pm Mass. 
• The children's choir rehearses on Mondays during the school year from 4:00pm-5:00pm in the big Church and sings for the 9am Mass on the 4th Sunday of the month. This group is open to children in grades 2-8.
• The youth choir rehearses on Thursdays from 6:30pm-7:15pm in the big Church and sings for the 3rd  Sunday of the month at the 11:15am Mass. This group is open to youth in grades 9+ and includes singers, instrumentalists and guitarist, along with a pianist.  
• Special event choirs are available throughout the year.  If you can't commit to singing each month, this is a wonderful opportunity to get involved for special choirs that rehearse for a shorter amount of time in order to sing for certain events or Masses.  

For questions about any of the choirs above please fill out the form below or email Amy Voorhees at avoorhees@stmarysmail.com. 

This is a yearly series that consists of up to 5 concerts of sacred music.  Some of the events are open to the choirs of our church and the Fredericksburg community as a whole.  For more information about singing in these choirs please contact Amy Voorhees. 

Sponsors are needed for each event.  If you, or your business, would like to become a sponsor for one or more events in our series please contact Amy.
