Music allows us to express more than we can with words alone. The quotes “The one who sings, prays twice!” and “Singing is for the one who loves.” attributed to St. Augustine, are two of many that encourage singing in the Church. Music Ministry at St. Aloysius fosters the interior and exterior “full, conscious, and active participation” (Sacrosanctum Concilium, 14) of the congregation in the Mass through song. To participate in the music ministry at St. Aloysius is to become a leader of congregational song.

The musical focuses of our 5 Mass ensembles span from Taize to traditional songs/hymns to praise & worship music.

Singers only need to be able to match pitch and have a willingness to learn.
