Here we are at the end of January 2021. Last year at this time we had no idea that music ministry would be so radically altered. Since the middle of March we have seen the discontinuation of congregational singing until two weeks ago when we were allowed to begin singing softly under our masks. Regular choirs have been discontinued, and cantors must sing behind plexiglass or in a separate room. Our hymnals have been removed from the church. Everything is so different. However, we have the Eucharist at the Celebration of Holy Mass. We have a new pastor who is full of energy and has a great knowledge of theology and liturgy and shares it regularly with the parishioners. So, even though the outer structures have changed for music ministry, we still have the core of our Faith and our Liturgical Celebration.
We love our music ministry and we miss the many aspects that we cannot do right now. However, we will never take our music for granted again! God bless you!
