Launching in October, directed by parishioner Mary Ann Bennek.  More information will follow.  The Bell Choir is on hiatus, and we hope they will return sometime soon.

Next weekend, we will welcome the Folk Group from the Basilica of St. Mary to both our 9:30 & 11:00 a.m. Masses.  They visited our 4:30 mass several weeks ago and we are pleased to have them return.
