Music Ministry Updates & Opportunities
Whether you are a new parishioner or a longtime member of the Holy Angels Music Ministry, I hope you will open your heart to the ways in which the Holy Spirit is prompting you to grow, to change, and to serve the Lord. As we enter into our next 25 years together, please visit this page often for updates and opportunities. I also ask for your prayers and support as I answer the call to this ministry. I hope you will stop by after Mass to say hello and reach out to me directly via email with any questions.
Thank you in advance for your partnership, prayers, and support.
In His Service,
