LITURGICAL MINISTRIES
MUSIC MINISTRIES
Holy Family’s Music Ministries serve to enhance the celebration of Mass with singing and music. There are many branches of the Ministry to accommodate all ages and a variety of our parishioners’ languages.
Music Ministries is always looking for people to share their gifts in praising our Lord. Our choirs are open to all parishioners. No experience is necessary—only the desire to serve the parish and a dedication to improving one’s musical talent are required. If you are interested in playing or singing, please contact the Music Director after any Mass or call the Parish Office (772-335-2385).

ADULT CHOIR
Holy Family’s Adult Choir is open to all adults who would like to connect with people and bring their gift of music to God. Rehearsals are usually held Monday nights at 7:00 PM. The Adult Choir sings at the 10:00 AM Mass. We also have smaller groups singing at the 8:00 AM Mass and every 1st , 2nd , and 5th Sunday at the 12:00 noon Mass.
YOUNG PEOPLE'S CHOIR
|
Our mission is to provide your son or daughter with the basics of singing in a chorale atmosphere. Singing with a group also provides your child with skills which will later transition to other areas of life. The Young People’s Choir provides a positive, safe, and healthy atmosphere in which to interact with other members at church while praising God. All children ages 6-15 (or grades 1 through 9) are welcome. We rehearse Mondays from 5:30pm-6:30 PM and generally sing at the 12:00 noon Mass every Sunday during the school year.

“You are the light of the world. A city seated on a mountain cannot be hid. Neither do men light a candle and put it under a bushel, but upon a candlestick, that it may shine to all that are in the house. So let your light shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father who is in heaven.” Matthew 5:14-16

Don't hide your talents! Serve God with them!
The Young People's Choir assists our priests at Mass setting the tone for the service. What a privilege to be used by God for this purpose! We would love for you to join us: Young People's Choir is holding open registration on Sunday 8/4/19 & Sunday 8/11/19 after the 8am, 10 am, & noon masses. We welcome all children ages 6-15 (or grades 1 through 9). |
YOUTH MASS CHOIR
Wing and a Prayer is an ensemble of singers and musicians praising God with Christian contemporary music at the Youth Mass (5:30 PM Sundays). Rehearsals are every Sunday at 4:00 PM unless otherwise notified.
FILIPINO CHOIR
The Filipino Choir adds its gift of music to the 3:00 PM Filipino Mass every third Sunday of the month (unless posted otherwise). We sing songs praising God in both English and Filipino. Our rehearsals are held every third Saturday of the month from 5:00-7:00 PM in the Community Room of the Parish Hall.
ITALIAN CHOIRThe Italian Choir participates at Mass several times a year: the Feast of St. Joseph in March, the Feast of St. Anthony of Padua in June, and the Feasts of St. Francis of Assisi and of San Gennaro in October. Along with these Masses, the Italian Choir joins their talent with all the choirs of the parish during special celebrations. Our rehearsals are at 6:00 PM on the indicated Wednesday (watch the parish bulletin).
SPANISH CHOIRSacred Scripture and St. Augustine of Hippo tell us that “singing is praying twice.” A church choir serves as a guide to help the congregation during the liturgy; it also sets the tone for the celebration of Mass. We invite you to join your voice with the Spanish Choir. The choir rehearses twice a month, on the 2nd and 4th Wednesday of each month, from 7:00-9:00 PM in the church. Holy Family’s Spanish-language Mass is celebrated every Saturday at 5:30 PM. Para leer esta descripción en español, haga clic aquí.

Music as an integral part of the worship experience. We invite all parishioners who enjoy leading the congregation in song in praise of the Triune God to join our Spanish or Italian choir. Registration is open year-round. Please come to one of our rehearsals and see what you think!

Holy Family is changing to permanent, hard cover hymnals! The change will take place on the first Sunday of Advent (December 1, 2019) when we begin the new liturgical year.
We wish to offer each family the opportunity to sponsor the purchase of one or more hymnals; you may dedicate the hymnal in the memory of a loved one, or in honor of your family or of an individual. To dedicate a hymnal, please call the Parish Office. |
