Music Ministry

Each of us has many opportunities to bring Christ's hope to others in our families, in our neighborhoods, in our world, and in our parish. St. Raphael's has prepared a booklet summarizing the ministries offered by the parish.

Adult Choir

St. Raphael's Adult Choir is open to all parishioners 18 and older. We rehearse Thursday evenings from 7-9pm, and sing at the 10am mass on the 2nd and 4th Sundays of the month from September-June. Prior singing experience/reading music is a plus but not necessary. If interested, please contact John Snyder via the rectory.

Children's Choir

St. Raphael's Children's Choir is open to all parish children from grades 3-8. We rehearse Thursday evenings from 6-7pm, and sing at the 10am mass on the 1st and 3rd Sundays of the months from September-June. This is a wonderful opportunity to give kids a head start learning music, teamwork, confidence, and much more. If interested, contact John Snyder via the rectory.

Instrumentalists

As part of the Sunday 5pm mass' focus on teens and young adults, we welcome high school instrumentalists to contribute to the liturgy. This is a great opportunity for young musicians to experience playing outside of school in a small ensemble on a regular basis.

Cantors

St. Raphael's is blessed with parishioners who volunteer their time and talents to lead the congregation in song at weekend masses and other services.

If you have questions about the cantors, or are interested in becoming a cantor yourself, please contact John Snyder via the rectory.

Wedding Music

Brides and grooms should contact John Snyder via the rectory to discuss music for their wedding. Generally speaking, 2-4 weeks is plenty of time, although it is advised to reach out earlier if you have any special requests (extra musicians, obscure pieces, etc.)
