MUSIC MINISTRY
Music is integral to the Liturgy. It unifies those gathered in worship, supports the song of the congregation, highlights significant parts of the liturgical action, and helps to set the tone for each celebration. It is important to recognize that the building must support the music and song of the entire worshiping community. In addition, “some members of the community have special gifts for leading the assembly in musical praise and thanksgiving.” The skills and talents of these pastoral musicians, choirs, and instrumentalists are especially valued by the Church. From Built of Living Stones, Conference of Catholic Bishops, November 2000. St. Anthony's Music program's are open to anyone regardless of church or religion and are free to everyone ! Please contact Kim Noftsker , Music Director for more information. ( 563) 322-3303
