The
Children Sing of the Christ Child
The eleven young singers from our parish whose voices were
recorded on our Christmas CD were happy to know that
28 more CDs were sold this season. One of those was an online
sale. The total sale was $336.99 and it has been
deposited to Saint Elizabeth Seton Church. The total sales
for these two years is $811.99.
We thank the eleven singers (one was a boy singer)
and their parents for helping us to produce this timeless CD and
helping to support our parish.
Invitation to Join Youth Choirs
Boys and girls interested in joining SES youth choirs: NOW IS
THE TIME! Registration is open for the month of January only.
Signup sheets are in the foyer or speak to Mrs. Husmer.
Students in grades 2 and 3
will meet on Thursdays from 4:00 to 5:00. This choir is for
beginning singers. They learn to read our hymnals, facts about
music and singing as part of a ministry team. When ready, they’ll
sing at Masses with the older group. They will prepare for Easter
Mass on April 8. This group learns to play our colorful little
hand bells, appropriate for this age group. Good reading skills
are the only requirement.
Students in grades 4 through 8
will meet from 5:00 to 6:15. This group usually sings at Masses at
least once a month as well as for Easter, First Eucharist Masses
in the spring and other special services. As ministers of music,
they continue to learn hymns, sacred choral pieces, facts about
music and liturgy, their faith and to play hand chimes.
Regular attendance for both groups is encouraged since developing
team work, skills and good quality music are the goals of this
ministry. |
