Saint Mary Choir

The Saint Mary Choir is a non-auditioned mixed voice choir that comes together once a week to help worship through music. We sing on Sundays at 10:30am, as well as on special feasts throughout the liturgical year. Our repertoire includes classical sacred music selections, as well as traditional and contemporary selections. If you love singing, we'd love to hear from you!

Contemporary Ensemble (Holt Ensemble)

The contemporary ensemble sings at the Saturday, 4:30pm Mass. This group consists of singers and musicians who assist in the worship by playing music that is more both traditional and contemporary in style, with the aid of guitars and melody instruments. If you sing or play an instrument and enjoy this kind of music, this is the group for you!

Mass Chaos (Evans Ensemble)

"Mass Chaos", as they affectionately call themselves, is a contemporary ensemble which sings at the Sunday noon Mass. The ensemble practices every-other week in the church, and plays contemporary music with the aid of guitars, bass guitar, and other melody instruments. If you like the more contemporary church music from the missals, this is the group to join!
