Choir and Cantor Information

"For he that singeth praise, not only praiseth, but only praiseth with gladness: he that singeth praise, not only singeth, but also loveth him of whom he singeth. In praise, there is the speaking forth of one confessing; in singing, the affection of one loving."
St. Augustine

"He who sings prays twice."
Traditional Abridgement of St. Augustine's Words

St. Anthony's always welcomes new voices to the choir.  If you find joy in singing we invite you to join us.  The ability to read music is not required.  Rehearsals are held every Wednesday evening at 7:00 pm in the church and we sing at the 8:30 Mass on Sunday mornings.

If you are an experienced vocalist with good sight reading skills, and you are interested in growing in your faith above and beyond the opportunity offered by the choir, we encourage you to apply as a cantor.  No previous experience as a cantor is required, but this ministry involves singing solo and a cappella at Mass and is therefore not for musical beginners.  Training is available and scheduling is flexible.

Please leave a message for Georgene Fayssoux at the parish office, 692-6613, for more information about musical ministry.
